How it feels

A retro tactical heist game where you carefully plan crew movements until chaos erupts with police arrival.

What players say

Players praise the core heist idea but report the game is plagued by constant crashes that wipe all progress mid-mission, with no save system. Controls are clunky, pathfinding is unreliable, and the game feels unfinished despite its age.
