What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“From our internal playtests, we've discovered that Haunted Heist is a viscerally fun experience, and we would like to get the core game loop in players' hands as early as we can. From there, we want to listen to player feedback while adding more rooms in the haunted house, additional game modes, more character cosmetics, and more abilities for the players to incorporate into their play styles.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“6-12 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We have sought to create an experience that does not feel exceedingly unpolished upon early access release, but want to ensure players that we have many ideas to improve and expand the game over time.

We plan to broaden the Trickster's abilities beyond the original 12, implementing more voice-based shenanigans, mobs, weapons, and more. We plan to create additional game modes and additional rooms within the haunted house. We plan to improve the onboarding experience. We plan to have additional face designs and cosmetics for the characters. We plan to build secret passageways for the Tricksters to hide in and for the Heisters to discover.

We plan to roll these features out periodically as they are built, rather than waiting for larger release goals.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Please refer to Haunted Heist's "About This" section to learn more about the games' currently implemented features. The game includes tunable settings to help players craft their ideal gameplay experience, but defaults to 10-minute rounds where the Heisters have 6 gemstones to collect and return. The Tricksters, on the other hand, brandish 12 abilities to thwart their efforts, which they can swap between each life.

The haunted house includes 11 bespoke rooms that are placed in a randomly generated voxel grid each round, connected via hallways that are procedurally decorated.

Our intention is to have minimal bugs, controller support, and a highly playable experience out of the gate, but currently Haunted Heist lacks the depth in gameplay mechanics that we hope to achieve over time.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to *slightly* increase the price of the game upon release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We have a discord and multiple available social media channels to discuss and make improvements on the game. Player feedback will be taken into full consideration, but we will ultimately stick to our creative vision throughout that process.”

About This Game

OVERVIEW

Haunted Heist is a round-based asymmetrical party game for 3–10 players. A team of Heisters works together to retrieve gems scattered throughout a procedurally generated mansion—while a rival team of Tricksters haunts the halls, sabotaging their every move.

The Heisters must collect gems and return them to their safe room before time runs out. If they succeed, they win. If the timer expires, or they’re wiped out by the Tricksters’ antics and attacks, the mansion claims another crew.

THE HEISTERS

Heisters rely on teamwork, tools, and proximity chat to survive the mansion’s dangers. Armed with a handgun, flashlight, flares, and defibrillators, they must manage their battery, conserve ammo, and stay close to one another to avoid being picked off.

Powerups scattered throughout the mansion can restore resources, enhance equipment, or help navigate its winding halls. Smart coordination and steady nerves are essential—because the Tricksters are always watching.

THE TRICKSTERS

Tricksters thrive in the dark, using fear, deception, and sudden violence to keep the Heisters off-balance. Their arsenal includes night vision, player muting, voice swapping, disguises, invisibility, voice modulation, and the ability to strike from the shadows before vanishing again.

Each ability runs on cooldowns, rewarding clever timing and psychological pressure. A skilled Trickster team mixes mind games with lethal ambushes, becoming an unpredictable and genuinely unsettling force of chaos.
