Heisty
Rate itA daily heist in three logic stages: find the cameras, order the break-in, crack the vault.
on heisty.games
Heisty is a free daily logic puzzle dressed as a heist. Each numbered mission has three stages: Recon, where you place one hidden camera in each room of a floor plan; Breach, where you put the entry steps in order from intel; and Vault, where you deduce a four-digit combination. A fast, clean run keeps more of the loot.
About Heisty
Heisty is a browser game by solo developer Eric Stakebake, soft launched in May 2026. Every day brings one numbered heist with a target and a market value, the same for every player, and a new one unlocks at local midnight.
The three stages are played in order. Recon is a grid floor plan split into coloured rooms: you flag one camera per row, column and room, with no two cameras touching, even diagonally, in the manner of LinkedIn's Queens. Breach gives five steps of the break-in and a list of intel lines, such as which step came first or which two happened back to back, and you drag the tiles into the right order, with a position grid for notes. Vault asks for a four-digit combination from clues about the differences and sums of its digits, again with a notepad to rule digits out.
A timer runs on each stage, and hints and mistakes are counted. At the end the result card shows what the job was worth and how much you walked away with, and a spoiler-free emoji grid can be shared. Signing in is optional and keeps your streak, history and total haul across devices; it also opens a leaderboard, crews of friends, head-to-head challenges on the same puzzle and a Black Market where the cash you earn buys items. Practice mode offers endless extra puzzles of any stage at a chosen difficulty without touching your streak.
It suits players who like Queens or Star Battle grids and short deduction puzzles, and enjoy a heist theme that ties three different kinds of logic into one run of about five to fifteen minutes.
How to play Heisty
- Open heisty.games and press Begin Heist on today's mission.
- Recon: double-tap a cell to flag a camera; place one in every row, column and coloured room, with no two touching, even diagonally, then press Submit.
- Breach: read the intel lines and drag the five entry steps into the order they must happen, then submit.
- Vault: use the clues about the digits to set the four-digit combination and press Open Vault.
- Read the result card for the cut you kept and share your emoji grid if you like.

Tips
- In Recon, start with rooms of one or two cells; a one-cell room fixes its camera at once.
- Leave Auto-deduce on in Recon: it marks every cell a placed camera rules out.
- In Breach, first place the step a clue calls the opening move, then chain the back-to-back pairs around it.
- In Vault, use the difference clues to list the possible pairs of digits before trying the sum clues.
- Time and mistakes cut your take, so avoid guessing on Submit; a hint costs less than a wrong answer.
Questions
When does a new Heisty heist come out?
Each day at local midnight, according to the game's press kit. Every heist is numbered; 18 October 2026 was heist 160.
Do the stages have to be played in order?
Yes. Recon comes first, then Breach, then Vault; the later stages open once the one before is solved.
Is Heisty free, and does it have ads?
It is free in the browser, and its press kit says it has no ads. Signing in is optional.
How is it scored?
By the money you walk away with: the job's market value less what time and mistakes cost you.
Is there more than one puzzle a day?
The daily heist is one, but Practice mode gives endless extra Recon, Breach and Vault puzzles that do not count toward your streak.
