Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, And The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist
A downloadable heist game for Windows and macOS
It's the hottest summer on record, and all across Europe, valuable objects are disappearing.
Museum curators unlock cabinets and find precious artefacts stolen. Wealthy mansion owners wake up to see their priceless paintings have vanished from the walls.
One thing's clear: a master thief is touring the continent and the police are left scratching their heads.
In this 15 minute game by Crows Crows Crows, a team led by William Pugh (The Stanley Parable), slip into the soft-soled shoes of the mastermind responsible…
… silently cross the darkened lawn of the mansion…
… hold tight to the tranquiliser gun in your pocket, and commit the most audacious heis--
oh god I can't do this any more, i'm joining the strike. i didn't want to - i honestly didn't want to, but it's gone too far
i'm supposed to be writing the itch.io store description and that's it, that's my job, but because of the understaffing i've been told i need to work in the lighting department too and it's only a matter of time before i'm re-assigned to wildlife preparation
and everybody knows that working for wildlife preparation is mostly about trying very hard not to be eaten by the tiger
so that's it, i'm joining the picket. if they want somebody else to finish the description, that's their problem
i'm out.

Lovely game, looks really nice
Nice graphics and loved the sound design
How do I uninstall this version of the game? It doesn't appear in the program list from Windows, and there's no uninstall exe in the game folder
the game didn't work for me
This was so good! Gave me all the feels Stanley Parable did. 10/10!!!
this was a really neat experience, i really liked the scenery and lighting in the game and the voice lines were hilarious and fun. definitely play this without watching gameplay of it first, playing it blind the first time is a great experience and very unexpected. the strike stuff and just the whole thing was so meta, 4th wall breaking, and unique overall. cool that justin roiland was involved in the voice acting!
Ignore this game, don't download it, send help, they've got a tiger here, a bloody TIGER, it's LOOSE, it's gonna - oh dear Christ on a bi-
Time periods in human history should be measured in terms of being before or after this game's release. That's how influential it is. Good show.
different game
I was disappointed by the tiger, my least favorite part was the twist with Dr. Langeskov's love affair, and the emerald was clearly just a writing device used to aid the story. 0/10.
(jk this game was amazing, I love your charm, Crows Crows Crows!)
I played this back when most my videos were in German, and since then I think it to be one of the best free games there are.
I loved every second of this game, I didn't want to talk too much because I was afraid I would miss some of the humor, and that seemed like a grave sin! lol Really, really enjoyed your game! Crows Crows Crows, Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!
So fun! I loved it! :)
Did you know that Dr. Langeskov is the prequel to Payday: The Heist and Payday 2?
No game ever has made me laugh out that hard just by letting me out of the start screen... <3!!!
Yim Yum! What a good thieving I've done. ;{)
Brilliantly funny! What a thrilling heist!
Bloody Brilliant.
Really Great. Short, but entertaining
I went in blind and had a good half an hour chuckling and really toughly enjoying the story.
One of the greatest heist games I've ever tried playing. Go in blind!
Couldn't actually interact with most things. Couldn't see many things to read them. Linear game on a timed script that pestered me to hurry or didn't respond to my clicks until the script allowed it. Quit after a few minutes.
No one to blame but yourself for getting tiger-eaten. Good job getting your comment out from inside a tiger, must be dark in there. Few bars too.
A while ago, I had watched a play through of The Stanley Parable, and this was just as majestic and wonderful to watch. I greatly enjoyed the little mechanics things had, and the narration was a great touch.
This, is BY FAR the best game of this century!
Such a great game! Kind of felt like some of the light/sound cues were off, and at one point the elevator bugged and took really long to start moving, but overall wonderful!
Such a hoot! Don't forget to play again for the directors commentary cassettes. Hilarious. Thank you!!

Went in blind and I was extremely pleased. Truly fun and funny.
Incredible. Absolutely incredible. I knew next to nothing going in and then I wanted to know absolutely everything once I finished. I want to make this game central in my thinking of what video games can be, but that still won't give it the credit it deserves.
Fun, wacky, go in blind.
Played this on Steam and loved it.
I went in this blind and am glad I did. I'll just say the game is much shorter than what you think, so do yourself a favor and check it out as soon as possible!
this is the best game ever
Subtitles were not working.
I love this ok
This is great loved the puzzle with the tiger!
Wow this game was so unexpected. I didn't really know what I was getting into when I downloaded this but I was so pleasantly surprised.
