## What is Blackwell 4?

Street psychics. Their blinking neon signs are everywhere, promising love and wealth and happiness. They make a fortune preying on the gullible and milking them dry. So when these victims begin dying and leaving confused spirits behind, it can only take a genuine psychic (and her wayward spirit guide) to clean up the mess.

From seedy downtown nightclubs to penthouse apartments to a luxury yacht on the Hudson River, Rosa and Joey will unearth the truth about the underground world of street psychics - including some secrets that Joey would rather be left buried.

This is the fourth in the series begun by "Blackwell 1: Legacy," "Blackwell 2: Unbound," and "Blackwell 3: Convergence" (all available now). The story is concluded in "Blackwell 5: Epiphany" (coming soon).

Rock Paper Shotgun - "The Blackwell Deception is hands-down [Wadjet Eye's] best adventure yet, and one of my favourites in a very long time."

Adventure Gamers - "Perhaps the best game in the series to date, Blackwell Deception is an enjoyable retro title and a well-rounded effort that’s easy to get into and hard to put down." [3.5/5]

Alternative Magazine Online - "The Blackwell Deception is a welcome addition to one of the most enjoyable adventure game series ever made." [9/10]

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2023-08-27*

Wadjet Eye games are the new Lucas Arts. This game is excellent. Great voice acting, great puzzles, great storytelling. Loved this game.

### 5/5 — Best of the series so far

*2021-03-06*

I haven’t yet played the 5th installment, but this one has been the best! Enjoyed the others but they were more linear. This episode is definitely more of a complex mystery, and the puzzles are more logical.

### 5/5 — Wadjet eye games 👍🏻

*2020-07-02*

Die Blackwell Serie spiele ich immer wieder gern, wie gutes Buch das man von Zeit zu Zeit aus dem Regal holt.

### 5/5 — Near perfect game.

*2020-06-30*

Bought all of these and they sucked me in. I loved playing them and I’m sad it’s over. If you like point and clicks you will love these.
I’d love to see some more Blackwell games, maybe a few prequels or sequels.

### 5/5 — Really beautiful. This is how you do bittersweet.

*2019-06-13*

The ending hit me in the feels. A great ending to an intriguing little series of games. I think this may be my favorite of Wadjet Eye games, and my favorite in the Blackwell series. That’s saying a lot because it’s hard to end a story well. Post GOT recovery, I couldn’t help compare endings. This hit a lot of nuanced notes of a story told over 4 games and 2 generations of women. Loved it. Love all the games, but this one is very special. Joey and Roseangela are classics.

### 5/5 — Winner

*2018-11-20*

Love the Blackwell series. Great storyline! Great game! Awesome to play on a handheld device also.

### 5/5 — Another gem from wadget eye.

*2018-03-14*

Wish there were more wadget games as I’ve played them all and especially loved the medium series, please hurry with more, my moneys burning a whole in my pocket wadget 👻

### 5/5 — Great game

*2017-03-22*

Amazing again, thanks Dave! One thing I would say is that this episode is slightly less logical in places compared with the first three. I had to find an online walk through as I got stuck in places. Now onto the last game.... 😀

### 4/5 — Sweet!

*2016-10-12*

You loved the point and click area of the 90's? This game is for you! Cool atmosphere, not too hard, good sense of humor, I really dig that series!

### 5/5 — Einfach toll!

*2016-06-06*

Ganz tolles Adventure und eine großartige Serie! Kann nur jedem Adventure Fan das Bundle empfehlen, bin nun bei Teil 5 angekommen. Voller Hoffnung, dass das nicht wirklich der letzte Teil ist! Klare Kaufempfehlung :)
