CRIME SIMULATORPLAY

Beginner guide: first days and quota

The opening loop is a debt, a short bag, and a deadline measured in days. Treat the dollar figures below as one Japanese guide's table, not a patch note.

The debt ladder, one source

Yoshitomi lists eight payments: 1000, 2500, 4000, 5500, 7000, 8500, 10000, and 11500, totaling 50000. The store page says you must meet a quota or lose the run. It does not print those eight numbers, so I am not promoting them to an official schedule. The official PC 1.2 notes separately raise Hardcore debt from 50,000 to 100,000; the old eight-payment ladder is not a schedule for every mode.

Bag, clock, and noise

The same notes start you with five bag slots and say a carried item uses one. Tools can stay in the vehicle. At 6:00 a sixty-second leave timer starts. Items still in the bag come with you. A delivery box has a delay, so the note suggests about fifteen seconds of spare time. Large items are carried in both hands. The guide says you can throw one out a window.

Quiet interaction is a long press, not a tap. A Steam thread marks the long press as the quiet door action. Naguide's lock article adds a glass-cutter gesture written as down, right, down for alarmed glass.

Practice locks and the first big job

Naguide says the safehouse has three practice locks: simple, tumbler, and master. The first large target in that ecosystem is the Texas train station. The station article puts the plan at Lakeside Street, house 208 or 211. Rural houses are described as having windows that are already open. Lakeside is where lockpicks start to matter.

Item requests

The Fandom item-request page sorts 76 entries: electronics 38, appliances 9, vehicle parts 4, art 7, jewelry 5, other 13. It includes 50, 100, and 250 gift cards. This is one community request list, not two independent confirmations. The reviewed sources do not establish whether you may sell a requested item and buy it back before delivery.

Questions

How long is one quota?

Yoshitomi's 4 Oct 2025 notes say one quota lasts three days and that there are eight quotas. I have not found a second write-up that reprints the same ladder.

Why did the house notice me?

That same guide says residents react to you, to noise, to a door you unlocked, and to a large item that vanished. An already-open window or an unlocked door is not on that list.

Do I need to keep items for an item request?

Fandom lists the requested item categories, but the reviewed sources do not establish whether selling and buying back an item still permits delivery. Use the request list to identify the item; this guide does not claim an unverified sell-and-rebuy method.
