🏡 House Robbery

Requirements

  • A lockpick or advanced lockpick
  • Must be nighttime (roughly 10 PM to 5 AM in-game)

Step by step

  1. Pick a house’s front door and beat the lockpicking skill-check. Fail it and police get called immediately with no entry.
  2. Getting in successfully can trigger a couple of surprises: roughly a 1 in 4 chance the house has a wired alarm, and about a 3 in 10 chance a guard is sleeping inside.
  3. If the alarm’s live, you’ll have a short window (20–30 seconds) to find the keypad and beat another skill-check before police get called automatically.
  4. A sleeping guard can wake up if you make noise nearby, fall or stumble, or botch a loot attempt — once awake, they’re hostile and armed.
  5. Loot points around the house each need a quiet skill-check plus a few seconds to search — fail one and you risk waking the guard or calling the cops.

Cooldown

Once you’ve hit a house, it resets after 45 minutes — new loot, new alarm/guard roll, and anyone still inside gets kicked out.

There are a bunch of houses scattered across the map, so there’s always another target if one’s on cooldown.
