Introducing 'Snap & Grab': A Stylish Heist Adventure

At the Summer Game Fest, I discovered a game that perfectly blends style with leisure—enter 'Snap & Grab'. In this unique heist title, you take on the role of Nifty Nevada, a fashion-savvy photojournalist on a mission to snatch up gaudy treasures from the affluent elite.

An '80s Themed Playground of Riches

This debut title from No Goblin had its demo showcased in Annapurna Interactive's exclusive area, embraced by all things '80s—think wood-paneled TVs, classic boomboxes, and heaps of CDs. It sets the perfect backdrop for a game that feels like stepping into a Madonna music video!

The Heist Mechanism: Snap, Don't Steal!

In 'Snap & Grab', Nifty cleverly avoids the act of direct theft. Instead, she takes pictures of the obstacles in her minions' path, allowing them to stage the heist without her on-site involvement. Spot a guard? Camera clicks as you capture a sink, leading to a delightful distraction as water floods to trip him! It’s a lighthearted approach that adds layers to the heist experience.

Gameplay Inspired by Fan Favorites

According to Cessia Castillo, the game's level designer, inspiration flows from a unique blend of 'Hitman' and 'Pokémon Snap', dusted with a pinch of 'Carmen Sandiego'. The demo offered a taste of one of the five stages featured in the game, with each level meticulously crafted as a sandbox for creativity.

Replayability and Surprises Await!

Even though only one level was available for play, the potential for replay was clear. With a dozen heists per level and numerous alternative routes, players have endless opportunities to strategize their way through. Unlockable abilities, like launching hot dogs for distraction, promise even more fun!

Bring Friends for Chaotic Fun!

The chaos really shines when played with friends. During the demo, groups collaborated wildly, suggesting hilarious alternatives for heist strategies—snapping photos and concocting plans filled with laughter.

Stealing More than Just Art

The world of 'Snap & Grab' is rich with quirky objectives. Future levels hint at stealing a sad penguin with artistic talent or adorable corgis for further hilarity at Nifty's penthouse.

A Satirical Twist on Wealth

At its core, 'Snap & Grab' serves as a satire on wealth and privilege. The game pokes fun at the absurdities of the rich, with the developers aiming to highlight their frivolous pursuits. There's even a touch of romantic intrigue with a detective involved in a cat-and-mouse chase against Nifty.

A Whimsical Experience for Everyone!

With a non-violent approach drenched in quirky humor, 'Snap & Grab' is perfect for gamers who enjoy exploration and whimsical puzzles. As Castillo put it, it’s catered to those who embrace the weird and wonderful.
