Activate your detective skills in this noir-influenced police action RPG. Grab your gun and prepare to face the strangest case of John Souza's career by helping the ghost of a dead mobster get "justice". Hit the streets in search of intel, befriend the scum and beat those who will try to stop you.
Pecaminosa blends the charm of a pixel art ARPG with the stifling atmosphere of film noir. It’s like mixing The Legend of Zelda with Touch of Evil — you haven’t seen and played anything like it! Interrogate suspects, explore a city dominated by crime and sin, and never hesitate to use your fists and guns. These are hard times in Pecaminosa.

Customize your character's equipment and improve your skill set by distributing experience points among the four parameters of the L.I.F.E. system: Luck, Intelligence, Force and Endurance. Play Blackjack to earn extra money, visit the liquor store, socialize with the scum, visit the police station and the brothel, in addition to other venues recreated with great graphic detail… and don't trust anyone. There’s a bullet with your name on it, and it’s eager to meet you.

Welcome to Pecaminosa, a border city between the United States and Mexico where gambling, corruption and crime reign in its dusty streets. A home for all those who live outside the law... and for our protagonist, John Souza, a former detective, a man who lived through better times before finding comfort at the bottom of the bottle. John would never have suspected that his next job was going to come at the hands of a ghost. Charlie's "Two Angels" specter appears to him with a task: to capture his former associates in order to achieve redemption for their sins and be able to pass through the gates of Heaven. To hunt the living in order to bring peace to the dead.


Pecaminosa includes the DLC La Soirée, an epilogue that offers new answers on the disappearance of detective Sullivan. There's something threatening in the air, and it's not syphilis. The Pecaminosa elite are up to their necks in a series of highly shady dealings, and Sully seems to have found out about it before he disappeared. As his former partner, John Souza will take it upon himself to track Sully down to find answers and, in the process, teach these filthy rich guys a lesson they will never forget. Here you’ll find:
