FOOL'S GOLD

This is a chaotic, co-op, tomb-raiding game in which players work together to grab as much treasure as they can whilst evading deadly hazards, fighting off awoken evils, and solving ancient puzzles. The game is heavily designed around co-operative play, with the majority of the mechanics designed to require, or at least heavily incentivise, co-operation between players.
