What’s in the demo
Coyote House Games listed the demo contents in the October 19 announcement:
- A suburban home — invade the house and garden, ruin the garden, eat trash, make coffee.
- A rural farm — cause havoc, milk cows and kidnap chickens (the developers confirmed both).
- A forest training ground — a tutorial-style area to sharpen raccoon movement.
- Missions and the Exterminator — complete ridiculous missions, steal everything you can carry, and outsmart the Exterminator.
- Cosmetics — a selection of skins and emotes for your raccoon.
- Online co-op — up to four players, or solo.
Official store screenshots also show a school level (principal’s office, lab skeleton, intercom, fire sprinklers) and a snowy outdoor area. Those screenshots are official, but the developers have not confirmed whether the school is part of the demo or only the full game — treat it as full-game content until you see it in the demo.
How to download it
- Open the Dumpster Gang store page on Steam.
- Click Download Demo (the demo has its own app ID, 4895870).
- Install and launch. The demo is PC-only.
What the demo does not include
- The full map list. The developers say the full game has more maps and more content.
- The full cosmetic and hat collection. The demo has a “choice selection” of skins and emotes.
- Confirmed save transfer. Nothing has been said about carrying demo progress into the December 3 release.
- A price. The full game’s price is still unannounced.
Demo tips
- Each mission has a 15-minute challenge. Learn the level layout on your first run, then race the clock.
- The gnome challenge asks you to extract five garden gnomes from the area — pick them up and carry them to the extraction point, don’t just smash them.
- The coffee challenge wants you to brew and drink a pot of coffee. The machine is in the kitchen; the cup comes after brewing.
- Play the demo with at least one friend if you can. Carrying heavy loot and rescuing captured teammates is much easier with a second raccoon.
