Just saw this on Steam, and I think it looks interesting.

TL;DR - you design a security system for your house to fend off neighborhood robbers, built using money you steal from other houses as you yourself don the robber cap.  You have a safe to protect, and family members to protect, and if you die you start over.  Oh yeah, its a MMO so everyone you rob, and that robs you, is a player.

Seems interesting, and I think you get your own files to run a server yourself.  Anyone up for some neighborly teevin' and muurdrin'?

It's $11.99 right now, but after launch week it will go to $15.99 for ever because the dev doesn't want to penalize the players that started the community and were early adopters rather than wait and see'ers.

PS I like the idea of GenCon, but not so sure I could swing it.  Seems extravagant when we have Kubla and Cayucos so near!
