Developed by Skilltree Studios, Crookz is a brand new tactical strategy game from Kalypso Media with a funky 1970’s setting. Organize a band of fun-loving misfits and help them on their way to riches and debauchery by plotting high-risk heists and robberies with maximum reward. Utilize stealth, cunning and cool equipment like chloroform and camera jammers to craftily overcome the dangerous encounters found in this particular line of work. Every member of the gang has a different skill-set; so embrace their unique play-styles and approach each job creatively with a mix of quick-thinking and tactical strategy gameplay. Above all though – look as cool as a cat while doing it.
Crookz is scheduled for release in 2015 for PC via digital distribution and boxed retail.
