It Steals

You enter maze-like levels where stealthy monsters hunt you. The game’s premise is to survive by learning how each creature behaves and following the rules of its mode.

Across a set of distinct modes, you explore the maze and collect blue orbs while dealing with a monster’s particular threat. Some modes add special tools or constraints, such as using a camera to flash a monster or relying on sound to track danger.

Each mode asks you to infer its mechanics and improvise with the tools available. Death can teach you how to survive the next attempt, while further modes, tips, and harder challenges provide additional goals.

Players often describe the game as frightening and tense, with its maze chases and sound design contributing to the pressure. Reviews also praise the variety of modes and their distinct mechanics, as well as the straightforward arcade-style objectives and optional challenges. Some players find the experience short, and others criticize particular modes or difficult encounters.
