Description
About This Game
Shovel & Swindle is a co-op game where you and a friend venture into a graveyard to do the most inhumane thing, graverobbing! Selling the bodies you steal to earn money, paying your rent on time, while avoiding being caught!
It's the aim of the game. Rob them all, rob the rich, rob the poor. Take the bodies, bring them back home and sell them for profit.
Bobbies patrol the area now, as a surge of other copycats are doing what you are doing! It seems like it's turning into a risky business with more and more of them each night. If only these future cadavers were easier to carry, then maybe you could outrun them.
Use the money you gain to pay your rent, and whatever's left over to help you get more bodies in the next night. The aim of the game is to get filthy rich! And avoid homelessness.
Use some awesome tools like; a bag of marbles? A magnifying glass? Or a rock? Why does that cost so much?!
As you explore the graveyards, keep an eye out for keys lying around. Hopefully, they'll unlock the high rise part of the graveyard? Or perhaps the dungeons? [Coming Soon]
Inspired by Burke & Hare, you'll go into a graveyard inspired from 1800's Edinburgh, with the sole intention of robbing graves either alone or with a friend. See how many Scottish easter eggs you can find!
