Trondheim, Norway –October 14, 2024– Independent game development studio Itchy Games has announced that the demo version of Tomb Stalkers is available now in the context of the Steam Next Fest until October 21. 
 
Tomb Stalkers is an immersive game where players explore the lost city of El Dorado to recover its ancient treasures, dispatched by the British Museum. As you navigate the city, you must collect keys and relics to progress through levels while facing enemies, including the sorceress and her minions, each with unique abilities.
 
The game features a cooperative mode for two players and offers 25 levels across five scenarios, along with three gameplay modes: Arcade Mode for achieving high scores, Original Mode for earning coins to unlock characters and gallery content, and Survival Mode, which presents a challenging one-life experience.
