Better Than Us description

Better Than Us

The year is 2200. A handful of people own everything—not just companies or governments, but the future of humanity itself. You are a manipulator and thief, and your mission is to steal it back. This darkly comic tale pulls you into a world where wealth and power are weaponized, and morality is the first casualty.

From the BAFTA‑nominated creators of Vampire Therapist, Better Than Us is a deeply researched satire that examines the most overvalued people in history and today. It draws inspiration from The Count of Monte Cristo, Thief: The Dark Project, Pentiment, Inventing Anna, and the satirical edge of Terry Pratchett, weaving a vision of a future shaped by those who already own everything.

You’ll infiltrate exclusive parties held by the ultra‑wealthy across floating cities built to survive the climate apocalypse they helped cause. Your targets aren’t merely rich—they buy elections, monopolize AI, and bend machines to their interests. They’ve spent centuries mastering the art of moral authority, and you’ll challenge that with something sharper: deception.

Your greatest weapon isn’t stealth or violence. It’s the truth you tell—and the carefully kept records of whom you told it to. Build a web of stories so tangled that even the powerful can’t see through it. But slip up—contradict a detail or forget a lie—and the entire scheme could crumble around you. Tell Lies, Remember Lies.

Expect extraordinary voice acting, with an all‑star cast led by Sarah Grayson and Cyrus Nemati, among others, delivering a rich, character‑driven experience that heightens every social gambit and betrayal.

The game embraces the role of what you steal as much as how you steal it. Sneak Queen your way through opulent parties, navigate a post‑apocalyptic luxury ecosystem, and lift the high‑value trinkets that drones and elites prize above all else.

Better Than Us was developed with historians from Oxford, UC Davis, and the University of Florida, grounding its critique of extreme wealth inequality in real history. It presents a future shaped by the past and invites you to question who truly deserves what they possess.

They might think they’re better than us—but you’ll prove otherwise.
