The Sexy Brutale is a little Puzzle Adventure game that takes place during a masked ball inside a casino of the same name. The game is essentially an endless time loop where the player must re-live the same murder over and over again to gradually unearth clues to save the life of every person attending the ball. Tequila Works and Cavalier Game Studios have officially announced that the game will be releasing on April 12th alongside the game's first gameplay trailer (embedded above).
The trailer above showcases the elderly priest, Lafcadio Boone. We get a look at the typical game loop as Boone hides and watches events play out in front of him to figure out how to save the other guests. For every life he saves, Boone gets closer to unearthing the secrets of The Sexy Brutale and its enigmatic owner, Marquis.
