Crookz - The Big Heist delivers a distinctive blend of tactical strategy, stealth, and heist planning wrapped in the colorful style of the 1970s. Developed by Skilltree Studios and published by Kalypso Media Digital, the game puts considerably more emphasis on preparation and coordination than direct confrontation. Instead of controlling a master thief through conventional action gameplay, the player manages a crew...

GREAT GAME! Finished it in 51 hours (completionist, collected most of treasures-unnoticed) not counting the challenge modes and was a blast from the past lol! + Nice 1970's vibe, music and nostalgia minus the LSD/drugs. + Good point & click strategy-stealth-puzzle type of gameplay. + Lots (18) of interesting and big complex maps, some can take 30-100 minutes. + Some replay value from creativity to complete...

What I got from this game was exactly what I expected: a mix of "squad"-tactics and stealth puzzle, a good early-2000s game feel, cheesy characters, many different levels. How much of a "puzzle" instead of a "strategy" game this is, depends on how perfect you want your run to be. If you won't settle for anything less than absolute best, than it will play like a puzzle. Otherwise, you can approach it like a strategy...

A fun little game, reminds me a bit of Commandos (minus the violence). Pro: - pretty good auto-save system, you usually only lose a few seconds - can be paused to plan and synchronize actions - each character has unique skills - 70s! Contra: - consumables can partially replace unique skills - you cannot bring the whole team to a mission - occasional stutter when unpausing or assigning actions to waypoints - AI...

Crookz The Big Heist is a genuinely good & really neglected stealth based real time tactical game with pause feature, that shares some similarities with games like Desperados/Commandos, inherently. Unlike those games though, Crookz has a more methodical way of handling movements & actions, and hence, can feel a bit slow paced. It's a heist game, as the name implies. So, the levels are all basically interiors. You...

I really like this game.. The plus: - nice voices - cool art and detailed maps - good control and gui enhancements The only bad thing is: - the storyline is a bit unrealistic - some minor bugs The biggest issue is that is seem to have a memory leak.. after some time game gets slow and does not load anymore. After restarting the game eveything is ok again.

I'm not installing a freaking Kalipso launcher when I have the game in Steam. I didn't install 2K games launcher to play the masterpiece of XCOM 2 I won't certainly install this. Seriously it seems many gaming companies are trying to push gamers into finding alternatives.

Each heist mission begins...
