Roles
The Shopkeeper
Snuff out any shoplifters in the store. That means paying attention to anyone stashing items, listening to announcements from the security office, and just keeping your eyes peeled for suspicious activity.
Shoplifters
Work with your team to steal all the items on their shopping list before time runs out, all while trying to blend in with NPC shoppers.
Key Features
Blend in
Shoplifters must balance between blending in and moving fast but be careful—NPCs can alert the shopkeeper if they notice anything suspicious.
PA System & Sabotage
The store intercom periodically alerts the shopkeeper to suspicious shoppers. Shoplifters can temporarily sabotage the system by tampering with microphones.
Jail Break
If shoplifters are caught by the keeper, they can be freed by fellow teammates, but they must decide between completing the list or risk being caught trying to free their teammates.
K.O.
Watch the corners or risk getting a can of peas in your face. Both teams have their own weapons up their sleeves.
