Robbers in Town is certainly one of the most challenging adventure game ever which is highly responsive and based on your stimulation. It is kind of a unique game where instead of one, two gaming characters you need to control in a very volatile surrounding. Two robbers in the town just broke the jail and getting away with the money. You are supposed to make sure they both survive the run throughout the adventure at the rooftops in the night. The very concept of the game is you will be controlling both the characters on the run with two distinctive keys, specific for both differently. It is quite fun and intriguing as well. The basic concept of the game appears to be more like a runner game avoiding the obstacles and taking points. That’s the objective here with players to make sure both robbers run throughout the game without falling into the pit or getting hit by an explosive box, also do not miss to take money bags.
Design
When the basic concept of the game is running over the obstacles, the design of the game is not like typical running games such as Subway surfer but more a side-scrolling platform like old classic games such as Mario. Except for the fact, they got two characters to control by a single player. However, there are only two keys supposed to be used, one-one for both. The only action in the game is to – jump! The game is designed with pretty much nice landscape of the city in the night, showing the skyline in dark. Then, you see the fences on the rooftops where the robbers are running. It opens at the very top of jail terrace with siren score giving you a feel of them breaking out. The explosive boxes are placed on the rooftops, some on the ground and some hanging in the air. It is again strategically placed, well-designed to create an engaging backdrop, also challenging enough to set you off.
GamePlay
The gameplay overall is simple, however, the game is not. It is one of the most challenging games you will find online. There is a tutorial level to teach you how to make jump each gaming characters over the obstacles such as terrace gaps and boxes. You have to use the LEFT key to make the first robber jump and RIGHT key to the second robber. Now while both are running, you are supposed to control them with these keys simultaneously. So basically, if any robber hit the boxes or fall down from the terrace, others will die too, so you will lose the game. You need to constantly look out for both of robbers heading to any obstacle or danger and react accordingly. Both robbers have a certain distance in-between, so do not think of pressing both keys together to make the jump because they have a distance between them. It simply means, for one, an obstacle or says boxes are near but for the other, it is yet to come in the proximity, so jumping together won’t help.
Instructions
Use LEFT and RIGHT keys to make the FIRST and SECOND robber jump respectively to make them avoid any contact with the boxes or falling in the terrace gaps. Try to take as much money bags but do not risk your gaming life for it. Make sure to protect both of them because if anyone gets hit, both go down and the game will start from the very beginning of that stage.
Tips To Play
1. First, adjust your grip on only the two keys that are LEFT arrow and RIGHT arrow and mind the distance in-between them. This will help you understand how much time the first robber will have in-between when you clear the obstacle by jumping for the second or front robber.
2. At first, it may seem why just not press both keys together and make them jump simultaneously or at once but it won’t work as the distance between them changes that. For both of the robbers, the obstacle reaches them in a different time so you cannot deal it at once. There should be a certain time between both jumps.
3. The best way to train your mind to focus a bit more on the front one and react accordingly. However, you cannot also randomly click LEFT following the front jumps, because the design of the game is tough to outsmart.
4. There are some places where things will not work out with these strategic ways because those close placement of boxes is made like that. You need to break the chain of strategy there. Go for next time and choose a different timing of jumps to make that happen, otherwise, you will be stuck there on trials.
