The vibe, the music, the gritty sarcasm. It's discount ocean's eleven without taking itself too seriously. I've found it in the glory days of HOTU which of it's own is a nostalgia wormhole. There is something inherently 'cool' about the game, I can not describe it except for calling it a vibe. It's a small crook to medium size heist simulator with colorful characters you meet a long the way. Talking about you Gludo.

My goodness, this is one of the most interesting, most well-made games in this unique genre. Some of it plays like a Point&Click, but most importantly, the planning, staking out and managing of heists is just SUCH a wonderfully creative mechanic - this game has to be preserved! I believe it was mostly popular in Germany, but I hope others get to play it too!
