Shoplifting
In this interactive installation, a group of characters explore a supermarket with the specific mission of shoplifting different products, always running away from the security guards.
I used the Baldur's Gate II engine (infinity engine), making a mod of the original game. The result is a playable new game with new rules: the game is not anymore about managing your own resources to get more goods while working or making some productive task. Now, you have to avoid buying or producing, and heroes become petty thiefs.
Shoplifting 2
Shoplifting 2 is a stealth-based and a strategy videogame in which a group of characters, recently cast out of the Forgotten Realms, are doomed to underground life in our contemporary world and need to survive in a shopping centre. The game therefore consists in shoplifting all sorts of products from the different shops. Shoplifting 2 subverts the mechanism of many asset management games, since here the gameplay involves getting the goods and money without producing anything nor buying the goods.
