Our take on Museum Night Shift
Reviewed by the LetsPlayFree editors ·
Museum Night Shift is a turn-based puzzle on a hex grid. You play the guard in a museum chasing a clever thief, and each move you make changes what the thief does next. Block exits and flip switches that open or shut security gates to trap them.
The goal is to catch the thief before they escape. You click or tap a neighboring hex to move, click the guard to wait, and step on switches to change the gates. It is a clever mix of chase and puzzle.
Thinking about where the thief wants to go next is the key. Using switches to close gates and cut off routes is more effective than chasing, and the turn-based pace gives you time to plan each step.
