„They Stole a Million“ puts the player in the role of a criminal mastermind – aiming to amass a fortune through meticulously planned heists. A team of specialists with skills like explosives, lockpicking, or getaway driving must be recruited, each demanding an advance payment and a share of the loot. Information and blueprints of potential targets, such as banks or art galleries, must be purchased. The heist strategy is planned from a top-down perspective, with the player strategically positioning crew members and coordinating timing. During the robbery, the boss stays outside, issuing commands via radio. A heavy police presence may force an immediate escape – and if the player enters the crime scene, they are defenseless against arrest.
