Museum Night Shift

Museum Night Shift is a turn-based puzzle game where your movement directly impacts a cunning thief's plans. Patrol a hex-grid museum, block escape routes, and manipulate switches to control security gates. Your goal is to catch the thief before the emerald is stolen or chase him down to recover it.

Gameplay Focus

Every move on the hex-grid museum floor changes the thief's strategy. Carefully position your guard to block paths, use switches to open or close security gates, and plan the perfect interception. This turn-based puzzle experience rewards patience and strategic thinking over speed.

What Stands Out

Solve 50 handcrafted nights across five unique museum wings. Earn coins for efficient captures to complete your exhibit album. Finish the campaign to unlock New Game+ with double coin rewards. This is a top-down, turn-based puzzle game with no timer, letting you plan each move at your own pace.

Helpful Tips
