Co-op horror heist

Bin Night

Raccoon heists for a dumpster god. Sneak into a dark house, steal the loot and feed the Trash King before bin day, and whatever you do, don’t wake the Homeowner. Solo or up to 4 online.

Needs a browser with WebGL 2. Best with a keyboard and mouse; phones and tablets get a touch stick and buttons. Co-op runs on a small game server that sleeps when nobody is playing, so the first crew of the day can wait up to a minute for it to wake.

A little about the game

You are a raccoon on the night shift for the Trash King, who lives in a dumpster and eats anything. Each night the crew climbs out of a storm drain, squeezes through the dog flap of a dark house and steals whatever it can carry: lamps, a tuba, Grandma’s vase. Drop the loot down the drain to feed the King. Bumped and thrown loot loses value, and the tuba takes two raccoons. Every third night is bin day: meet the quota and the King coughs the extra back up as Shinies for upgrades; come up short and he eats the crew. In the dark there is the Homeowner, who wakes to noise and sees anything that moves in his torch beam, a cat you should not stare at, a Roomba that slurps up loot, and a mannequin that only moves when nobody is looking.

Your first few minutes

Pick a name and fur, then Play solo, or Host co-op and share the five-letter crew code (friends type it next to Join). In the alley, press Head out (solo) or I’m ready. Sneak through the dog flap, press R to sniff out loot, grab it with E and carry it back out to the drain by the curb. Hold E at the drain to call it a night before 5 AM.

Your save stays with you

Progress lives in this browser on this device. Clearing this site's browser storage removes it. No account or login is needed, and saves are not uploaded to a server.

Runs are not saved: a run lasts until the King eats the crew. Your name, fur and settings (sensitivity, invert look, volume, field of view and graphics quality) are remembered in this browser. In co-op your raccoon’s name and chat go to the game server, which keeps nothing after the room closes.
