How to Escape the Police

Leave the house as soon as a resident spots you. This Criminal Simulator outrun the police guide focuses on protecting your loot and the limited nights you have to meet your quota. Running shoes improve your movement speed, but leaving before officers arrive gives you more time to escape.

In the Roblox game, residents can call the cops after detecting you. Police arrival isn't necessarily immediate, so use that opening to leave instead of checking another room.

When a robbery goes wrong:

  1. Stop collecting items. Head out rather than spending the response window searching drawers or climbing upstairs.
  2. Move away from arriving officers. Don't linger around the house where police are gathering.
  3. Watch your wanted status. Being wanted can prevent you from returning to the hideout.
  4. Return when the game allows it. Bring your haul home and sell it before starting another robbery.

Don't build your escape around a fixed countdown. React to detection immediately instead of trying to squeeze in one last valuable item.

Buy Running Shoes and Respect Carrying Limits

Buy running shoes when you can afford the movement upgrade. They increase your speed, helping you travel between houses and run from danger.

Heavy stolen items create another problem: they slow you down. A TV might be tempting, but carrying it while officers approach makes your exit harder. Leave bulky goods for a quieter opportunity when you can move them without an active pursuit.

Consider these upgrades and their different roles:

  • Running shoes: Increase movement speed.
  • Lifter: Improve your ability to carry stolen goods, including heavier items.

Prioritize running shoes if escapes are your main problem. Add Lifter when carrying limits are preventing you from taking larger valuables. Don't assume that being able to pick something up makes it easy to escape with it.

Prevent the Call With Quieter Entries

Avoiding detection saves you from having to win a chase. Hold C to sneak on keyboard, and crouch while moving through occupied houses. Residents can react to noise or spot you inside, so keep watching their positions even when you're moving quietly.

Use entry tools instead of smashing your way in:

  • Lockpick: Opens locked doors and gives you access to additional rooms.
  • Glass cutter: Lets you enter through windows with less noise than breaking the glass.

Throwing a rock through a window is loud enough to alert people inside. Save up for the glass cutter rather than relying on broken windows for routine entry.

AC gas can put people inside a house to sleep, creating an opportunity to collect loot. Use tools that reduce encounters before trying to solve every interruption with a weapon.

Armed security guards can take you down quickly. Skip a guarded room when reaching its valuables would require a fight, especially with loot already in your possession.

Choose Loot You Can Get Out With

Look for valuable items such as diamond rings, gold watches, tablets, game consoles, drones, and gift cards. Choose your next pickup with the exit in mind: heavy goods can turn a short trip back to the truck into a slow one.

Start with regular houses while learning the robbery loop. Items left outside, including goods on benches, also give you opportunities to collect loot without entering an occupied building.

Transfer your haul to the truck regularly, but don't treat its storage as protection from every consequence of getting caught. Capture can cost you stolen goods. Return to the hideout and sell rather than keeping an entire night's earnings unsold while taking more risks.

Protect Your Remaining Nights and Quota

Classic normal mode gives beginners room to learn before moving to harder difficulties. Start solo if you want to practice sneaking, transporting loot, and recognizing when to leave.

You have three nights to steal during the classic run described here, and getting caught skips a day. That makes an unsuccessful robbery costly even when you were carrying very little.

Check your quota and the return deadline on the job board before heading out. At the hideout, place your stolen items in the selling area and use the selling interaction to collect payment. You receive only a portion of their value, so judge your progress by the money actually earned.

Once you've brought back enough loot to work toward your quota, sell it before spending more time around occupied houses. Use those earnings for the tools and movement upgrades your next trip needs.
