wocheneinkauf
Remember when grocery shopping used to be stress free? Me neither! Well we found a way to make it even more stressful. In wocheneinkauf, four different dimensions have recently collided. The world might be ending. Everything changed. Except one thing. You still have to go shopping.
Compete against each other in this fever dream of a 4-player local PvP game and find all kinds of silly items and characters.
“Vierkauf”, a supermarket that happens to be the most screwed up place of them all, makes your shopping experience the most extraordinary in town, because all four dimensions are represented with exclusive items and styles!
The game is mainly about maneuvering your shopping cart and collecting the items you need.
But there are a few obstacles: Shelves and towers of cans block your way, other shoppers bump into you and steal the items you've collected. And hey, if someone steals from you, you’re not just gonna let that slide, are you? Yeah, that’s what I thought.
And as if that weren't enough, there is a strict time limit imposed by the government for shopping, which means you also have to be as fast as you can. Players move through four unique departments in one round as it gets increasingly overwhelming.
If you collected more items than your enemies and arrived at the checkout first, congrats, you won and everyone probably hates you now.
Players control the shopping cart with a joystick. There is also a dash that allows you to push items off shelves or out of other players' shopping carts. Overall, the game thrives on heated interaction between players, funny moments together and chaos in the game world.
