What is Crime Simulator?
Criminal Simulator wiki covers Steam Crime Simulator: quota jobs, tools, skills, and a hideout that keeps paying after a failed run.
Criminal Simulator is the fan-search name for Steam Crime Simulator, a Action · Indie · Simulation · Roguelite heist from CookieDev. You’re out of jail, but the debt isn’t gone. Sneak, steal, and break into houses solo or in 4-player co-op.
Crime Simulator is a fast-paced roguelite crime game, not a slow Thief Simulator clone. Break into houses, steal valuables, and complete jobs before the quota clock runs out. Use lockpicks, a crossbow, sleeping gas, or a baseball bat. Unlock 15+ skills, four voucher abilities, and hideout furniture that changes the next run.
This Criminal Simulator wiki is not Roblox Criminal Simulator (Pigged Out Studios). Use one Criminal Simulator guide for the first quota, then this wiki for skills, tools, and Ashen Creek. Verified October 29, 2026. Not affiliated with CookieDev or Valve.
