Thief Town Will Have You Asking: “Damnit, Who Do I Stab?”

And now for something completely different.

This really has to be seen to be believed: As revealed over at the PlayStation Blog , a game called Thief Town is coming exclusively to PlayStation 4 on September 29.

It's a "local multiplayer stealth party game for 2-4 players" and the goal is to simply stab the other players in a retro environment. It sounds simple but it won't be easy, as every player looks exactly the same. On top of which, the town is filled with NPCs that also look identical. You've got to disguise yourself while figuring out which of your friends are Thieves. If you accidentally attack an NPC, you won't get any points and you'll reveal that you're human.

Tricky, huh? But that's not the only type of gameplay here, as there's also Spy Town (you get items to trick and trap your foes) and Drunk Town (one players is The Sheriff and while he's outnumbered, he's got a pistol). This could be a total blast at a party, I'm just sayin'.
