Screencheat: Unplugged, a fully remastered and revamped version of the chaotic party split-screen first-person shooter; where everyone is invisible, blasts its way to Nintendo Switch™ on Nov. 29, 2018.
Samurai Punk’s Screencheat: Unplugged features a myriad of improvements over the original release, as well as alterations tailored just for the Nintendo Switch; including: a graphical overhaul with more vibrant and clear visuals designed with the portable screen in mind, new and remixed maps, remastered weapons, an updated UI, full support for single Joy-Con™, dual Joy-Con™, and Nintendo Switch Pro Controller inputs, and an entirely new soundtrack introducing a fresh and mischievous medley of energetic tracks to enjoy.
Wield a wacky arsenal of one-hit kill weapons ranging from blunderbusses and hobby horses to candelabras and explosive teddy bears. Since all characters are invisible, players must watch their opponents’ screens to know their locations; screen-cheating is not only encouraged, it’s necessary. The 11 levels are divided into color-coded areas filled with memorable landmarks, allowing positions to be pinpointed with ease.
Screencheat: Unplugged touts a range of recognizable game modes; like My First Deathmatch and Hillcampers, as well as decidedly less-familiar ones; such as Murder Mystery and the confetti-filled piñata-based experience Capture the Fun; which use the game’s distinctive premise in fascinating ways. This variety is reflective of the full experience; which is brimming with customization options allowing players to tune the experience to their personal tastes.
“Screencheat is a special party game that puts an inventive spin on a familiar experience. Our team are huge fans of the Switch, and its multiplayer focus in particular; so creating this new version of the game made perfect sense.”
said Nicholas McDonnell, managing director, Samurai Punk.
