An untitled game about finding items in a dense crowd.
People carry items on their heads because they don't have hands. You have to survey people and their inventories to complete missions.

Example missions
Find the kidnapper. This idiot is carrying a person on top of his head. Shouldn't be too hard.
Find the terrorist. Carrying a bunch of tacky holiday stuff, amongst which is a hidden bomb.
Find the security expert. Carrying techy stuff and cameras for secure facilities. Stop him to help the protagonist of “On The Run.”
Find the mathematician. Carrying a bunch of tiles in a certain sequence. Someone might be interested in these. (Play “Snake2048” to receive reward.)
Find the ghost. Carrying a bunch of weird white pellets. Someone might be interested in these. (Play “Pac-Man” to receive reward.)
Crossover ideas
- In “Find the security expert”. Stop him and one security camera is destroyed/not delivered in “On The Run” in some specific level.
- In “Find the ghost.” Stop him and there's one ghost less in on SuperPacman level.
- People that look like “On the run” -protagonist/Pacman/Snake or something distinctive from others. Basically just a skin change.
- People carry items that are familiar from other games like pellets/tiles/security cameras etc.
- Bilateral achievement: Find the ghost carrying pellets AND pass some specific SuperPacman level to unlock extra level/achievement/etc. in both games.
- Bilateral achievement 2: Find the mathematician carrying 2048 tile AND collect 2048 tile in Snake2048 to receive X achievement.
- 2048 panic: when people collide they merge into new ones with a merged inventory. Eventually, you've people with enormous inventory on top if you can't find the unsub.
- SnakeMassacre: A powerup that summons giant snake that eats people in a row. May lead to successful mission if unsub is eaten.
- PacMassacre: A powerup that summons Giant Pacman that eats people randomly. May lead to successful mission if unsub is eaten.
- FlappyAttack: A fleet of flappy birds arrives and knocks them and tehmselves out.

Concept Art
Box head characters seem to be fine as they're but they could have faces and shapes'd be rounded up. We're gonna rip off the design from Mountain Sheep's Minigore.
Suggested gamescreen is as if you're looking through a scope and there's flock of people passing by.
