Smash N Grab

Take control of Smash, a hulking robot drummer, and Grab, his cunning raccoon accomplice, as they tear a tethered trail of thievery through retro-futuristic environments inspired by the graphic style of Saul Bass, Samurai Jack, and Batman: The Animated Series. Players will demolish everything in their path as they race against the clock to secure the fastest escape, bagging the score of a lifetime. With each attempt, players and speedrunners alike will shave precious seconds off their time in their pursuit of the coveted S ranked chaotic caper.

Smash 'N Grab's first demo features a highly replayable single level. Players will smash everything in their way, grab loot, fight guards, and traverse platform sections as they try to escape as quickly as possible. Repeated attempts will allow them to try new routes and to perfect their strategy while seeking an elusive S rank.

  • Smash walls, guards, and obstacles as you Grab loot while discovering hidden shortcuts and areas.
  • Optimize and perfect speedrunning routes to get the best score and climb the global leaderboard.
  • Spoiler! Destroying valuables shaves precious seconds off your time and boosts your score.
  • SMASH AND GRAB!
