Grand Theft Idiots

Grand Theft Idiots is a multiplayer heist game set in a sprawling shopping mall that stays open after dark. You steal valuable items, sabotage rival thieves and try to get your loot into an extraction van before security shuts everything down. The mall’s locations have distinct atmospheres, and its stores, security cameras and unpredictable crowds shape each heist.

Plan your heist

Play with a four-player crew or customize a match for up to 12 players. Lobby settings include match times, rounds, extraction vans, modifiers, difficulty and loot rules. Changing store layouts, randomized loot placement and events also make you adapt from round to round:

• Power Outages: Lights and security cameras go down, making it harder to see but easier to steal.
• Black Friday: Aggressive shoppers and massive crowds fill the mall.

Steal and extract

You can take small valuables for a quick escape or risk carrying massive haul items worth thousands. Bigger loot brings bigger rewards, but makes you more visible. Items only count as yours once they are loaded into an extraction van; everything in the van is automatically sold when you extract, and the last player to carry each item receives its money.

You can also use utility items to interrupt escapes, ambush rivals and steal their loot before they extract. The available items include Stun Guns, Paintball Guns, Door Blockers and Rope.

Escalating security

Each match grows more dangerous as you commit crimes, trigger alarms and attract security, raising the mall’s heat level. Police become more aggressive as security escalates, making each trip to the extraction van riskier. You decide whether to cash out or keep pushing for a larger score.

Money and progression

Successfully extracted loot becomes Blood Money, your permanent lifetime score. It also generates Clean Money, which you can spend between rounds on utility items without affecting your leaderboard ranking. You can build your loadout, unlock Steam achievements, earn character skins and compete to become the richest thief.
