What kind of game is this?

A co-op stealth game about stealing targets from shops and facilities. Find the code, open the safe and bag its contents rather than carrying the safe itself. Small valuables share bag slots; consider space and weight before taking extras.

Guards distinguish ordinary customer behavior from suspicious actions in staff areas. Watch witnesses, cameras and alarm tags to choose your moment. If spotted, leave the last seen location, break line of sight and join the ready escape vehicle.

Your first steps

  1. Choose a contract and start alone or in a room. Locate staff-room clues, security systems, the target safe and your vehicle.
  2. Hold E to steal carefully or operate security devices. Check bag contents and free slots while securing the safe's target.
  3. Load the target and hold E to request vehicle departure. Break pursuit during preparation and board near the vehicle.

Helpful playing tips

  • Fast theft makes noise. Allow normal interaction time near guards; use quick theft only when willing to take the risk.
  • A cupboard is not safe if someone saw you enter it. Break line of sight with doors or furniture, then consider moving elsewhere.
  • Heavy bags strain movement and stamina. Load the main target first, then seek extra loot if you have room to spare.

Saving and playing together

Where is progress saved?

The game manages its own profile and rewards. Active missions and permanent rewards are separate; no shared Tammi Arcade cash balance is connected.

Can I play with friends?

Tackle contracts alone or with up to four players. Split roles such as disabling security, hauling targets and tracking guards.
