“I've been enjoying myself a great deal...It's a stirring game.”
Rock Paper Shotgun

“The Masterplan presents a very unique and welcoming vibe for all who have dreamed of robbing a building establishment.”
75/100 – Gaming Trend

“The Masterplan is the perfect heist game for anyone becoming disillusioned by the frustrating likes of GTA V. Its simple approach gives players the freedom to take on the world their own way, and the authentic sound and visuals add an atmosphere that really caps off a great experience.”
9/10 – We Got This Covered

About This Game

The Masterplan is an award-winning tactical squad-based heist game set in 1970s. The 2D top-down view gives you a great overview of what's happening at any given moment, allowing you to be a real criminal mastermind. Features hand-drawn 2D graphics and fun group control, granting you total control - at least until someone calls the cops and everything goes haywire.

During the game you'll need to heist your way through 20 unique hand-crafted heists in a persisting career mode, manage your crew from heist to heist by hiring the right goons and by making sure they are properly equipped. A test of a true mastermind will be to execute the plan to perfection, keep the goons alive, and walk away with the maximum loot from each heist.

Depending on your preference, you can hit your targets loud, or in stealth, or a mix of both. Keep the civilians under control, knock them out, or leave no witnesses. It's all up to you, just make sure you won't be there when the cops arrive - or be ready for a brutal firefight.

If you are hungry for more content on top of the campaign, you can test your mettle in the 8 challenge maps, built by the development team, available through Steam Workshop. And with Steam Workshop support, players can also create their own heists!
