In London 1849, Scotland Yard plans to launch "The Devil's Basilisk" AI in 100 days, ending your burglary days. Pull off heists to steal the tech first. This indie action RPG suits rogue-like fans who thrive on procedural levels and high-stakes escapes.
The Swindle is a steampunk cybercrime caper about breaking into buildings, hacking their systems, stealing all their cash, and quickly running away again before the police show up.
All the buildings you’ll be robbing are randomly-generated, so you’ll never get the same level twice.
Meanwhile, from the safety of your rickety airship up in Outer Space, you can modify your thief with new skills, tools, and all manner of advanced technological horrors, allowing you to take on bigger buildings with better security, for gargantuan rewards!
Have you got what it takes to pull off The Swindle?
