As Steam Next Fest continues, the open-world pirate game Windrose was the most popular demo at the start, and it’s still attracting over 10,000 players each day. However, a fast-paced, cooperative game is quickly gaining popularity and could potentially become the next big hit if it maintains its momentum during the final weekend of the festival.
Last year, the game PEAK became a hit thanks to its fun cooperative gameplay. It featured charming cartoon characters but offered surprisingly difficult, physics-based challenges. It was enjoyable to play with friends and watch others stream it. Now, Burglin’ Gnomes seems to be following in its footsteps. The game’s demo during Steam Next Fest attracted more players than any other game in the event’s history, and it’s still attracting a strong player base. So, what exactly is Burglin’ Gnomes, and what’s driving all the interest?
Burglin’ Gnomes Offers Chaos, Crafting, and Co-Op in Steam Next Fest Demo
The demo for Burglin’ Gnomes was released before Steam Next Fest, and it quickly became one of the most popular demos on the platform. The game, developed by Fobri, is an online co-op experience where players take on the role of mischievous gnomes who break into houses and cause trouble. It’s been described as a chaotic and fun game, combining the cooperative gameplay of PEAK with the criminal antics of Schedule I, and players are clearly enjoying it.
In Burglin’ Gnomes, up to six players team up as gnomes with a mischievous mission: sneak into a human home and steal everything they can! But it’s not that simple – you need to avoid getting caught by the humans while also keeping up with your gnome jobs. Completing these tasks is crucial to keep the High-Gnome pleased, or face the consequences. Check out the hilarious chaos in the official demo trailer below!
Beyond sneaking, stealing, and quick breaks, Burglin’ Gnomes lets you use stolen items to improve your gnome’s home, adding a surprisingly cozy element to this chaotic co-op game. It seems the developers are building on ideas that have proven successful in other popular games, and early signs are good – the recent Steam Next Fest demo was very popular.
Currently, there’s no confirmed release date for Burglin’ Gnomes. It’s listed as “coming soon” on Steam, but the good news is the free demo will be available for a long time. This gives you plenty of opportunity to try it out while you wait for the full game.
