15 itemsAbout the Game
Shady job is a co-op adventure game for up to 4 players.
You’re construction workers.
You got a shady job.
Carry a body bag to the top of a skyscraper.
Bury it in concrete.
Everything goes according to plan.
Until the body wakes up.
It wants out.
Build paths across unfinished skyscrapers.
Survive hazardous construction sites.
Don’t let it get away.
THE BAG FIGHTS BACK
The bag is not just cargo. It struggles, escapes, breaks structures and pushes players off ledges. The bag gets more aggressive if you handle it too roughly.
BUILD YOUR WAY UP
Create unstable bridges over deadly drops, using different building blocks. One mistake can destroy the entire structure. Manipulate cranes and platforms to get higher above the city. Beware dangerous traps and environments.
CO-OP PHYSICS CHAOS
Break walls and windows. Use the Plunger Gun to climb, survive, and control the bag. Save teammates from deadly falls and escape physics-driven disasters. No route ever goes according to plan.
