Good RTS game
It's no match to Desperados, Robin Hood or anything else that is an RTS, but this game for sure had a lot of love put into it. The gameplay of the game is a little clunky however the overall quality is top notch.

Criminally underrated (pun intended)
Great, lighthearted tacttical game. A not distant cousin of games like Shadow Tactics, No very hard so far (level 6), but really entertaining. Very easy controls which let you pull precise coordinated actions effortlessly. At the beginning I dinn't like 70's cheap B-movie vibe, but it has grown on me. It makes me sad watching games like this vanish into oblivion while overmarketed AAA garbage keeps making millions. Give it a chance.

Fun, unique, challenging ...but crashes.
I'm only about halfway through the game, but so far Crookz is fun despite the random crashes every couple of hours. Fortunately, the game autosaves every time you do something so the crashes are only minor annoyances; though the achievement for completing a heist (if you launched the game through GOG Galaxy) won't unlock if a crash occurs. Hopefully they will unlock when replaying a level after unlocking all the thieves' skills and I'll update my review if I confirm if this is the case. The first few heists are easy, but not boringly so as you're still learning each thief's skills, what each tool does and security system does, and how the guards react. The one and two star levels only require patience and can be played almost entirely in real-time, but once you hit 3-star difficulty the game starts to become a real challenge, requiring genuine strategy, split-second timing, with multiple thieves on the move to do different tasks at the same time which you'll need to carefully plan out in pause-mode. Though there are many ways to complete each heist, from the 3-star difficulty and up, you will have to think carefully about which thieves to choose and what tools to bring, giving the game good replay value. Overall, Crookz is a good stealth strategy game. Yes, the guards return to their patrol routes after hearing a noise of seeing something out of place as is typical of this kind of game, but the developers have taken that into consideration and made that part of the challenge. (Maybe Skilltree/Kalypso will incorporate a heightened search mode with a countdown until the police arrive if they make a sequel.) One last note: Apparently there is a crookz.exe ransomware which Malwarebytes (and maybe other antivirus software) will confuse with the Crookz.exe game file, so be aware that you will have to make an exclusion if you don't want to keep reinstalling the game.
