Overview and Gameplay
Kevin McCallister is left alone in a suburban neighborhood while the Wet Bandits attempt to break into homes and loot safes. Instead of staying in a single house, Kevin moves between multiple properties, responding to robberies as they unfold across the area.
The core loop revolves around exploring the neighborhood map, entering targeted houses, and slowing down the intruders with improvised traps and tools. Each house contains multiple safes that must be protected until the threat is neutralized.
