Robberies

Introduction

The robberies hub is about planning. Criminal Simulator gives you a city to rob at night, and the question that defines every run is simple: which target, how do you enter it quietly, and how do you turn the take into a clean escape before the deadline? The confirmed target ideas come from the game’s official art and the Alpha loop — homes with sleeping residents, a bank, and a museum all appear in the official presentation. This section compares those targets, explains entry angles and risk trade-offs, and gives you a decision framework instead of a rigid list, because Alpha builds keep changing the details.

What to Rob: Target Comparison

A quick look at the robbery targets seen in the game’s official art and the Alpha loop. Risk levels and details are community-reported — the full breakdown lives on the Robberies page.

Target Breakdown

Core Mechanics

A robbery in Criminal Simulator is a three-act problem. The first act is the approach: reach the target after dark without drawing attention, using cover and quiet movement while residents sleep. The second act is the grab: get inside, take the most valuable loot you can carry, and avoid waking the building or tripping the alarm. The third act is the exit and sell: leave before anybody raises the alarm, reach the buyer, and cash out before the deadline. None of these acts are fixed numbers — the whole skill is weighing time, noise and risk, which is exactly why targets need planning rather than blind rushing.

Advantages

A planning-first approach to robberies turns the night from chaos into a routine. Choosing targets by risk instead of impulse means fewer failed runs, less wasted deadline time, and more consistent cash. Knowing an entry angle before you arrive saves the minutes that decide whether a haul reaches the buyer in time. Comparing targets also teaches you the pressure loop — the more you understand risk, the faster you improve. For crews, shared planning is even better: a squad that agrees on roles and exits before entering can hit medium and high risk targets that a solo player would never attempt.

Challenges

The confirmed target pool in Criminal Simulator is small during Alpha, and details about what each target contains are community-reported rather than officially published. Loot values, spawn behavior and alarm systems can all change between builds, so specific advice written for one version may not match the next. Bank and museum style targets carry high attention, and a failed attempt can cost more than the night — including lost loot and the time burned off the deadline. Plan, then re-plan after each update, and keep a short list of targets that worked for you instead of chasing whatever list a video recommends this week.
