Story: Igor the chosen and his warband have come to plunder and loot the shores of England, targeting monastery's and churches. Using brute force and clever thinking nothing will stop him from getting what is his by right of raiding.

Players piece: 2D sprite will be used, The feared viking captain Igor the chosen, feared by his people when he killed his first man at the age of 12. Since then he rose to fame as an ambitious man, later sailing to far away lands to bring back plentiful loot for his fellow vikings.

Gameplay: The game will focus on the main character Igor which the player will control in order to locate loot and plunder that the monks have hidden somewhere in or around the building. The game will be top down, using 2D sprites, utilising the movement system from minecraft pocket edition and a click to interact function. In some cases the player will have to navigate through hostile areas where guards may be (later levels) or kill some monks for the bonus points (a choice). When looking for loot a timer will start for finding clues, and then another timer for finding the actual loot itself.

What makes it unique: The combination of choice events, such as killing or sparing the monks, and puzzles in order to locate the loot and then getting to it. Situations also change in the game depending on how they are approached, if your warband is known for killing all innocents then later levels may see an increase in guards to protect the churches, or you can spare the monks at the cost of your reputation to the warband.

Lose state: Losing will be either being killed by a guard, not locating enough loot in an area before leaving or running out of time to find the loot. Each mission will have a required amount of loot to be found.

Win state: finding all the loot in an area, or defeating all of the enemies on certain missions where monks hide/characters are needed to be found.

The game will look cel shaded with a pixel art style, using objects such as viking longboats, swords axes and other tools from this time period.
