Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One is the first installment in an RPG-adventure game series set in the comic-book-meets-pulp-horror-meets-H.P. Lovecraft deranged 1920s universe of New Arcadia. Players join Gabe and Tycho, the crime-solving team of the Startling Developments Detective Agency, to combat savage enemies and solve mysteries hidden deep in the sinister heart of New Arcadia. The game series is the result of close collaboration between Hothead Games and Penny Arcade, featuring distinct artwork and characters designed exclusively by Mike "Gabe" Krahulik, story and dialogue by Jerry "Tycho" Holkins and brought to life by the Hothead team.

Then, the madcap Penny Arcade experience continues in Episode Two! Players can jump right in with a fresh character and new customization options or carry over their look and stats from Episode One.  Plus, there are more puzzles, areas to explore, levels to gain and new difficulty settings to make the journey more insane than ever before. Rejoin Gabe and Tycho to go crazy with a whole new episode, moving ever closer to solving the mystery in the heart of New Arcadia.

Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness, Episode One and Episode Two have been rated "M" for Mature by the Entertainment Software Rating Board for all platforms.
