Pick-a-Pocket

Pick-a-Pocket is a multiplayer stealth game set in a Victorian-era underworld, where you compete with friends to become the king of thieves. Each match supports up to 8 player slots, filled by players or AI bots. You can join through Steam invites or lobby codes, and a leaderboard shows the top players during the match, with scores tallied at the end.

Stealth and stealing

Darkness conceals you from other players, letting you cross the map unseen. Entering the light or getting too close to others exposes you, so you must choose when to move through lit streets and when to wait in the shadows. Coins come from randomly spawning targets, but stealing them can attract unwanted attention.

As a match progresses, more police flood the streets. If they catch you in their flashlights, they send you to jail and you lose part of your earnings.

Maps and movement

Explore elaborate, multi-story maps that reward exploration and tactical thinking. You can ride steam cars and use elevators to outmaneuver opponents and evade capture.

Career and records

A career tracking system follows your progress from novice pickpocket to master thief. It records 25 statistics, including match records such as Richest Night and Highest Bail Paid, as well as lifetime totals such as Total Nights Won and Total Gold Lost. A fully voiced tutorial introduces the game, and achievements offer additional challenges.
