In Cold Blood is an action-adventure game released in 2000 for the PlayStation, developed by Revolution Software and published by DreamCatcher Interactive, Inc. It blends action-adventure and action elements.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest

  • you are looking for something to play with friends

What playing In Cold Blood is like

Action-adventures blend real-time combat with exploration, puzzles and item collection. You open up a larger world gradually as new tools let you reach places you couldn't before.

Tip for newcomers: Keep a mental (or paper) map of locked doors and unreachable ledges; most action-adventures expect you to come back once you find the right item.
