Monsters and Monocles is a frantic, Victorian steampunk themed twin\-stick shooter all about using teamwork and heavy weaponry to battle the hordes of evil\. A naive occult collector has unknowingly unleashed a great evil that is spreading across the globe, and it’s up to you and a team of quirky paranormal investigators to find the source of this dark energy and blast it back to where it came from\. Online and Local Multiplayer  Take on the challenge solo, or play with up to 4 players online or locally\. Your team shares a single pool of lives so you need to stick together, revive fallen comrades, and watch each other’s backs\. Customize Your Play Style  Search out and use powerful weapons to aid you in battle like the blunderbuss, stake launcher and the crumpet cannon \- a steampunk toaster that fires weaponized crumpets\. Find and equip relics to customize your weapons and add new abilities to match your play style, and upgrade them by looting chests and destroying enemies\. Procedurally Generated World  Each level is procedural so you and your comrades will be faced with unique enemy placement, traps, secrets and objectives each time you play\. Your trusty airship the HMS Scone acts as your hub and lets you gear up before taking on challenging levels like the haunted mansion, snowy Victorian streets and a cursed Pharaoh’s tomb\. Each area ends with a fearsome boss encounter, such as a demonic chimney sweep or a giant cyclops skull\.           Features        4 player co\-op \- both locally and online   Co\-op centric gameplay \- Revive teammates and shared pool of lives across all players   Challenging single player   Every game is different \- Procedural levels, enemies, relics, objectives, and secrets   Customizable abilities \- Collect relics that can be upgraded across play sessions to match your play style   Full Controller support   Huge bosses   Sound design & Music by Hyperduck Soundworks   Dogs wearing smoking jackets
