About Relooted
A crew. A job. A plan. In Relooted, toss those ingredients together, and you’ve got yourself a classic heist — but with a few twists. Your crew members are everyday citizens with pretty normal careers from different countries in Africa. The job is to liberate African artifacts from Western museums. And the plan? Well, that’s up to you to create.
Africanfutur-heistNear the end of the 21st century, the political powers that be brokered a Transatlantic Returns Treaty, promising the repatriation of African artifacts from museums. Good old fashioned diplomacy was working — until it wasn’t. An amendment switched up the terms and conditions of which objects were to be returned. Museums, now knowing that only publicly displayed artifacts would be given back, were slowly removing artifacts from public display.When life gives you lemons and museums pulling shady moves, it’s time to chuck the lemons back at life and try a new, stealthier form of diplomacy. You’ve got 70 of these artifacts to (re)loot, all of which exist in real-life and are of huge cultural, historical, and spiritual significance to the people they were taken from.
Teamwork Makes The Heist WorkIt all starts with a troublesome little brother, who, yeah, gets you into all sorts of messes. But thankfully, as Nomali, you’ll meet more reliable crew members from different African countries. Recruit people from the classic hacker to… your prim and proper grandma? Don’t worry, grandma pulls her weight.
Case the JointPlan ahead to lay the groundwork for a beautiful masterpiece of an escape. Check the getaway route, fiddle with puzzles and obstacles, and find spots to recruit the help of the right teammates.
Get In. Get Out.Once you’ve set the stage carefully and the artifact is sitting all pretty — looking quite not-stolen, but no worries, you’re gonna fix that ASAP — this is the moment to perform. Plucking an artifact from its resting spot starts the countdown timer, and with Nomali’s flow-based parkour abilities, escape should feel like you’re in the fun, montage part of a heist movie. But if you slacked on the planning phase, you’re gonna pay for it!

Casual game with good cause, likeable characters - and a goodbye to old tropes. The two-stage principle of scouting/planning and (the much shorter and more hectic) execution works in favour for anyone who likes to see a good plan unfold. The African artifacts are well researched and receive proper attention. The artefact database is an important feature that leaves no doubt about the educational motives behind the game. Worth supporting!4 found this helpful
Game is a good time, solid platforming and puzzle setup for each area with different methods of tackling them. Lots of knowledge on the real artifacts and who took them years and years ago. The last couple of chapters I noticed a couple of bugs with getting stuck between a door and holding one of the safes, but nothing game breaking. Definitely recommend it plus it is educational in a way!2 found this helpful
A platformer with a message :) Good music & scenario and not expensive. First try is enjoyable, I'll continue the review after a bit more or it2 found this helpful
Well this was an adrenalinic gameplay, and the story was also engaging, which also made me more invested than I already was on learning about the represented artifacts and their history. While some little parts of the parkour where not that fluid even while doing the best timing possible, but didn't really kill the flow, the rest was awesome and yes the fluid parts of the escapes reminds of a modern Sonic game, which is very nice, I must say that it felt like the Lupin The 3rd stealth game I always imagined, minus the weapon of course, something fluid and adrenalinic, with some kind of clever or with bad puns humour during the heist and/or while planning it. Of course I'm not comparing the two kind of humour because they are very different, I'm just saying it's nice for both to have their sense of humour. However with some adjustments to some little janky parts, I say it would be very interesting to see some kinda of crossover or innovation toward Lupin The 3rd series, with of course new mechanics and weapons, with an interesting confrontation in case of a crossover. If not that, a Lupin The 3rd game made by these developers would be interesting, since the last non-mobile game of t…2 found this helpful
This game reminded me a heck of a lot of the Carmen Sandiego games I played as a child. It's not too similar gameplay-wise, but I learned a lot and the heists have puzzles throughout. As the current top commentor alludes to, this game can feel a bit repetitive at times. I found that when that was happening I needed to take a break. But I will admit the story carries the motivation to play through more than the escape sequences, though I felt the excitement each time. Which is to say that this game has excellent vibes.2 found this helpful
A wonderful puzzle escape game! I love that it has real artifacts that are mentioned. The story is good, love the characters.1 found this helpful
