About this gameFull description from Steam
My dying father’'s last words: “'Be greedy.”' —— Goblin Vyke Run your very own goblin shop in a medieval world. Goblin Vyke is a 2D side-scrolling game that blends stealth with shop management. You are Vyke the goblin, a thief who sneaks into dungeons to plunder treasures by night, and a merchant who sells the loot for massive profits by day. You’ll master your stealth skills and cheat death to steal the Demon Lord’s secret fortunes, while simultaneously hiring employees and expanding your franchise to grow your business. Eventually, you’ll rise from a penniless goblin to an influential black-market tycoon! The Golden Dungeon is fraught with danger, and as a small, frail goblin, you can’t win a straight fight against any foe—but you have other choices. Throw Coinbeetles that turn into bells to attract enemies, set Nap Traps to put guards to sleep, use Smoke Mimics to cover your escape. Use a variety of abilities and items to outsmart and “kite” your enemies. Deadly dungeon traps? Turn the tables by luring enemies into the traps, setting up a lethal game of hide-and-seek. Explore hidden areas and discover untold treasures. Every path might lead to unexpected surprises—or fatal dangers. Steal weapons from enemies’ hands, grab loot from treasure chests, and complete a spectacular theft right under the nose of Death! Search, Steal, and Evacuate Upgrading your talent tree doesn’t just enhance your exploration and survival abilities—it also unlocks different playstyles! Go for the Agile Thief build: use your Grappling Hook to escape pursuits and Shadow Rewind to return to position, completely throwing enemies off. Prefer the Cunning Tactician build? Toss Coinbeetles to manipulate enemies’ movements or Play Dead until the coast is clear. Or choose the Aggressive Brute build: leap from heights to Stun Stomp enemies, or even stand in front of a guard and snatch their equipment with a Steal Parry! Backpack capacity is limited, and loot takes up different numbers of slots. Will you use items to boost your survival chances, or bring them back to sell for profit? Manage your inventory wisely, explore item combos, and make crucial choices between risk and reward. Agile Thief or Aggressive Brute? The treasures you stole last night must be sold for a golden price today! The rules are simple: roll the dice multiple times and pair them with the appropriate Haggle Skills to increase the customer’s Persuasion. Convince the customer, and you can sell the items for up to three times the original price. But be careful: if you exceed the required Persuasion points, the customer will immediately turn against you. Display Collectibles in your shop to help grow your sales. Remember: your eloquence determines your wealth. Bombastic sales pitches, the right Collectibles, and a bit of luck will make customers willingly empty their wallets for your secondhand items at extraordinary prices. Roll the Dice and Raise the Price, but Don’t Oversell The story begins with you as a little goblin drowning in debt. But as your thieving skills improve and your shop business booms, the tide begins to turn. Recruit employees with different attributes: the “Man of Steel” never gets stranded, the “Storage Expert” carries a bigger backpack, the “Squishy” one dies permanently when injured, and the “Lazy” one brings back very little. As you expand your influence by opening franchise locations, powerful figures will come knocking at your door, currying favor and asking for your assistance. The Adventurers’ Guild, a mysterious organization... Everyone wants to win you over. One day, even the Demon Lord of the Golden Dungeon will take notice of you, hoping you’ll become her new emissary! From Debt-Ridden Goblin to Black-Market Tycoon!
