How Classic Mode Works
Criminal Simulator classic mode gives you three nights to collect loot and meet your required quota. Getting caught skips a day and can cost you stolen goods, making each failed robbery expensive. Start on normal difficulty and play solo while you learn how to enter houses, move quietly, and sell what you steal.
This guide covers the Roblox game:
| Game | Developer | Maximum players per server |

Your hideout is the center of the run. You store stolen items there, sell goods, and use its computer to purchase equipment and character upgrades. Higher difficulties offer better earnings, but learn the robbery loop on normal before increasing the challenge.
Keep checking your quota as you earn money. Build your route around reaching that target without sacrificing your remaining nights to unnecessary fights.

Start With Regular Houses and Sell Your Loot
Begin with ordinary houses instead of heading straight for a mansion. Some properties have armed guards who can take you down quickly, while easier targets let you practice sneaking and transporting items.

Follow this loop:
- Look for accessible loot. Check outdoor areas, including benches, before entering a building.
- Crouch inside houses. Residents react to noise and can spot you, so move carefully around occupied rooms.
- Take valuable items back to your truck. Use it to transport your haul.
- Return to the hideout. Carry the stolen goods into the selling area.
- Press Sell. You receive a portion of the items’ value.
- Use the computer to buy equipment. Some purchases become available as your level increases.
Return to sell regularly instead of stretching every trip into another dangerous house. Loot sitting in your truck still needs to reach the selling area before it becomes spending money.
Which Items Should You Take?
Prioritize valuable finds such as:
- Diamond rings
- Gold watches
- Tablets
- Game consoles
- Drones
- Gift cards
Look for these during ordinary house robberies before taking on tougher properties. Expensive loot is useful only if you get it home, so leave when a resident spots you instead of searching one more room.
Separate credit cards from the goods you sell normally. A card machine lets you extract money from stolen credit cards, giving that equipment a specific purpose once you start finding them.
Do not plan purchases around receiving an item’s full displayed value. The selling area pays only a cut, so check your actual earnings before choosing your next upgrade.
Buy Tools That Open More Routes
Use the hideout computer to expand your options as equipment unlocks.
Lockpick and Glass Cutter
The lockpick opens locked doors, giving you access to additional rooms. Buy it early to expand the places you can search.
The glass cutter lets you cut through house windows with less noise. Add it when you want another way into a property, and keep crouching after you enter: a quieter entry does not prevent residents from seeing you inside.
AC Gas and Card Machine
AC gas puts people inside a house to sleep, creating an opportunity to collect loot. Consider it as you move toward more valuable properties.
The card machine processes stolen credit cards. You can carry it with you or leave it at your hideout, so choose where to keep it around how you handle those cards.
A baseball bat is also available, but avoid treating a weapon purchase as permission to challenge armed security. Guards can end a robbery before you get much use out of it.
Improve Movement and Carrying
Two character upgrades directly support the collection-and-delivery loop:
- Running shoes increase movement speed, helping you travel and escape danger.
- Lifter makes carrying stolen goods easier.
Choose between them based on what slows down your trips. Buy running shoes if movement is the problem; consider Lifter when hauling items becomes cumbersome.
Balance those upgrades with access tools. A lockpick or glass cutter opens more opportunities to find loot, while movement and carrying upgrades help you transport it.
What to Do When You Get Spotted
Leave promptly when a resident detects you. Police do not necessarily arrive immediately, giving you an opportunity to escape, but do not spend that window finishing your search.
Keep the route back to your truck in mind while exploring. If you already have valuable items, head out instead of pushing deeper into the property.
Getting caught can remove loot and skip a day. With only three nights available, avoid using capture as a shortcut back to the hideout.
Approach guarded houses and mansions after you have better equipment and understand how detection works. If security spots you or starts shooting, prioritize getting away over collecting another item.
