Strange Scaffold's love letter to slow-motion combat and neo-noir storytelling has been enhanced and rebalanced for iOS

EL PASO, TEXAS – September 17, 2024 Strange Scaffold and Frosty Pop are thrilled to announce that El Paso, Elsewhere is now available on iOS. The mobile version of the acclaimed third-person neo-noir shooter has been re-tuned for mobile, offering a wide array of quality-of-life tweaks while retaining the gritty atmosphere, satisfying action, and incredible hip-hop soundtrack that made it a breakout hit.


Somewhere in El Paso, Texas, a three-story motel gained another 46 stories... all below ground.  El Paso, Elsewhere is a supernatural neo-noir third-person shooter with cinematic combat and a killer hip-hop soundtrack. Take on the role of battling folklore researcher James Savage as he takes on werewolves, fallen angels, and other damned creatures in a vivid slow-motion love letter to action classics. Fight your way through a reality-shifting motel, floor by bloody floor. Save the victims of Draculae, lord of the vampires. Destroy the villain you loved – even if it means dying yourself.
