Ravenous Devils

Ravenous Devils splits its gameplay between two shopfronts in a Victorian city of crime, corruption and poverty. Upstairs, Percival runs a tailor shop where customers come in for new suits and dresses. Downstairs, Hildred runs a pub serving meals to a steady clientele. The two businesses are connected by a trap door, and the trap door is the entire business model.

You control both characters in real-time. Percival measures, fits, and at the right moment drops the customer through the floor — first stealing their outfit so the material doesn't go to waste. Hildred receives the bodies, butchers them, and turns them into the menu the pub is selling to its other customers. Resource management runs across both shops: ingredients in the kitchen, fabric in the tailor's, both replenished by the same source.

Reputation grows with each successful service, unlocking new tools, recipes, and upgrades for both establishments. The art is hand-painted in the style of macabre fairy-tale illustration, the writing leans into the grand-guignol of the premise, and the campaign runs about four hours from open to close.
