Shadow Heist presents a top-down 3D stealth gaming experience. The player must make their way through the level completing all sub objectives to complete the main goal. The main aim is to steal as much loot as possible whilst being undetected. This is not easily done as the player will face many challenges such as enemy security droids, cameras, and lasers. Failure to remain undetected will force the player into being captured leading them into restarting the level. Once the player has collected the minimum value of required loot, they are able to head towards the exit and finish the level. 
 
Story: 
In a dark, dystopian cyberpunk-themed future, our main character finds themselves teetering on the fringes of society, destitute and desperate. As moral lines blur, they are left to fend for themselves in the dangerous urban underworld. However, their luck takes a turn when an enigmatic figure interrupts their downward spiral with an enticing offer: a chance to start anew as a professional thief. 
Filled with excitement at the prospect of escaping their grim reality, our protagonist embarks on a series of audacious missions handed down by the mysterious contractor. Little do they know, that with each successful heist, the faceless contractor keeps the lion's share of the spoils while offering only a meagre part as their due.
