The Highwayman is a solo tactical stealth game in which the player must pull off multiple robberies by recruiting a team of mercenaries and rob unique pieces of art.

You are the Highwayman, a hacker and robber. You must make a name for yourself by stealing famous art pieces. Beware not commit too much mistakes or the authorities will track you down.

Assemble your team

• Hire a team of trained professional, ambitious amateur, ex-soldiers or dangerous lunatics. Pay them, make them work and they will benefits from useful traits. Neglect them and they will develop dangerous behaviour and maybe give intel about you to the authorities.
• Equip them. Buy tools for them to sneak past any surveillance or give them weapons and body armor if you want to go loud. After all , you won’t have to pay a dead mercenary.

Steal yourself some art

• Infiltrate warehouses, museums and private collections. Find a way to bypass every security measure. Steal some of the most famous pieces of art you can, and then some !
• Hack into the different network your the targeted place. All seeing cameras are now blind or are working for you and impenetrable gates are now wide open.
• Fight your way out, if things gets messy.

Pull the string from your hideout

• Manage your teams.
• Send your teams on secondary missions if you don’t want them to lay around too much.
• Keep an eye out for your suspicion meter. If it full, you will need to bail out as soon as possible.
