What is Mr. Sun's Hatbox?

This 2D stealth-action roguelite follows a courier company's attempt to recover a stolen hatbox from Mr. Moon. You take on missions to capture or defeat enemies, recruit thieves, collect hats and weapons, and build a base before attempting heists. You can play missions solo or in couch co-op.

+you like choosing recruits with different traits for missions
+you want to tackle missions with a couch co-op partner

Not for you if...

−you dislike losing recruits permanently when missions go wrong
−you want a long campaign without repeated missions
