Heist Text Adventure — Plan the Job, Pick the Crew, Beat the Clock
This is the heist genre where the plan is only as good as the people you trust to run it. You case the target, recruit a crew with their own agendas, and thread the job through blind spots and timing windows — but here you don't pick from a menu, you type exactly what you do: cut the power, bribe the guard, walk out the front with a clipboard and a lie. The world adapts to your play and remembers it, so the fence you stiffed and the safecracker you talked down both come back around when it matters.
Play this world →Rain ticks against the diner window. Across the booth, the driver you half-trust slides a folded blueprint over the sugar caddy and taps a red circle near the loading dock. "Camera's dead Tuesdays, four minutes, between shift change," she says. "But Marko wants in, and Marko talks." Her coffee's gone cold. Somewhere a clock you can't see is already running. What do you tell her?

FAQ
What kind of heists can I pull in this AI text adventure?
Anything you can describe — a museum job, an armored-car intercept, a casino count room, a corporate data grab, a quiet con with no alarms tripped at all. The AI builds the target, the security, and the payoff around the plan you invent, so no two scores play the same.
Can I recruit and manage my own crew?
Yes. You assemble the crew, and each member has skills, a price, and a temperament. Bring in a hothead and the plan gets riskier; the AI remembers who you hired, who you burned, and who might sell you out when the pressure spikes.
Does betrayal actually happen, or is it just flavor?
It's real and it's earned. If you underpay the fence, cut someone out of the split, or leave a loose end, the story tracks it — a double-cross can surface mid-job, and how you handled people earlier decides who has your back at the worst moment.
Can I type my own plan instead of choosing from options?
That's the whole point. Every turn you write your own move in plain language — case the vault, forge a badge, stall the guard with small talk — and the world responds. You're not clicking a branch; you're improvising the job.
Is it free, and do I need to sign up or install anything?
It's free and runs right in your browser — no download, no account needed to start. You can play a turn on the spot and only save your run later if you want the heist to continue where you left off.
