How Skills Work in Crime Simulator:
-----------------------------------
Every skill you unlock opens a new layer of gameplay. From breaking
into secure facilities to making stealthy escapes, these upgrades
define your effectiveness. You can view your current skills anytime
by checking the Computer in your Truck.
-=Level Up to Earn Skill Points=-
To unlock new abilities, you first need Skill Points, which you earn
by completing jobs and assignments. Each time you level up, you
receive one Skill Point.
-=Skill Leaflets Are the Key=
To actually activate a new skill, you must find and use a Skill Leaflet.
These collectible items are hidden all over the game world—inside homes,
buildings, and hard-to-reach locations during your heists. Occasionally,
you'll find them in special loot boxes or be able to purchase them from
the Truck Store.
So even if you have a Skill Point, you won't be able to use it unless
you've also collected the right leaflet.
To unlock any skill, you'll need:
* 1 Skill Point (earned by leveling up)
* The matching Skill Leaflet
(found during missions or bought from the Truck Store)
* Some skills are multi-tiered—you must unlock the lower level before
advancing to the next. For example, Agility Level 2 requires that
Agility Level 1 be unlocked first.
Pro Tip: Choose your upgrades wisely. Each point is rare and precious.
The right combination of skills can turn a messy job into a clean getaway.
Lockpicking and Safecracking Guide:
-----------------------------------
Your first stop in the Safehouse should be the three lockers. Each one is
equipped with a different lock type, allowing you to practice the full range
of skills you'll need during a heist.
-=Left Locker (Simple Lock)=-
This is where your journey begins. This locker will help you build the
fundamental muscle memory for the most common type of lock in the game.
* Lock Type: Simple Lock (Requires Lockpicking lv.1/Basic)
* Required Tool: Simple Lockpick Set
* Practice Focus: Get a feel for the tension and the correct timing. Since
this is the lock you'll encounter most often, being able to open it
quickly and without thinking is a huge advantage. Practice until you can
open it in just a few seconds.
-=Center Locker (Tumbler Lock)=_
This lock introduces a new mechanic and requires a more delicate touch.
It's the perfect place to learn precision.
* Lock Type: Tumbler Lock (Requires Lockpicking lv.2/Advanced)
* Required Tool: Bobby Pin
* Practice Focus: Unlike the simple lock, this is about finding the exact
“sweet spot.” Use this locker to train your ear for the subtle audio cues
and feel for the slight controller vibrations (if applicable) that tell
you you're in the right position.
-=Right Locker (Master Lock)=-
This is the lock that separates the amateurs from the masters. It is
notoriously tricky and requires extreme precision. If you can master this,
no door in the game can stop you.
* Lock Type: Master Lock (Requires Lockpicking lv.3/Master)
* Required Tool: Bobby Pin
* Practice Focus: Patience and micro-adjustments. The correct position for
this lock is tiny. Spend time here learning to make very small, controlled
movements. Frustration is normal at first, but mastering this lock is a
true sign of skill.
-=How to Crack Any Safe - The Brute-Force Method=-
Safecracking can be slow, and the tools to make it faster are expensive and
take up valuable inventory space. This method allows you to crack any
combination safe with just your hands and some knowledge. It's 100% reliable.
Here is the step-by-step process:
* Find the First Number:
- Hold down LShift + D to spin the dial clockwise at full speed.
- Don't let go.
- The dial will eventually stop and reset on its own.
- The number it lands on is your first correct number.
- Let's say it stops at 79.
- The key is to pay attention to the number where the dial resets.
* Enter the First Number:
- Now that you know the number is 79, slowly turn the dial clockwise to 79
and wait a moment.
- You'll hear a distinct “clunk” as the first part of the lock sets.
* Find the Second Number:
- With the first number set, immediately hold down LShift + A to spin the
dial counter-clockwise at full speed.
- Just like before, let it spin until it resets on its own.
- The number it lands on is your second correct number.
- Let's say it's 51.
* Enter the Second Number:
- The combination has reset, so you must first re-enter the first number
(turn clockwise to 79).
- Then, turn the dial counter-clockwise to the second number you found, 51.
- Wait for the “clunk.”
* Find and Enter the Final Number:
- Now repeat the first step one more time.
- Hold LShift + D to spin the dial clockwise at full speed until it resets.
- This will be your final number. Let's say it's 28.
- You now have the full combination: 79-51-28.
- Carefully enter the sequence: Clockwise to 79, counter-clockwise to 51,
and finally clockwise to 28.
The safe will open. This technique guarantees you can open any safe without
needing to bring any special gear, freeing up a slot for more loot.
-=Bonus Tip: The Glass Knife=-
While you're practicing, don't forget the window. You can use your Glass Knife
on it to practice the motion for a silent breach. The pattern is always the same
and building muscle memory is key:
Down, Right, Down again
That's honestly all there is to it. It might seem like a bit of a pain to practice,
but trust me, spending 10 minutes in the Safehouse before a big heist makes a world
of difference. Now go out there and get paid.
