Play as Travis Baker, building a criminal operation in Rockay City. In the solo roguelite campaign, you compete with rival gangs for territory and try to rise to the top of the city’s underworld.
Take on robberies and heists alone, with bots, or with up to three other players. Missions let you sneak past or subdue guards and secure loot, or switch to open combat when stealth fails; some objectives also involve tasks such as disabling cameras and cracking safes.
Earn cash to recruit crew members, buy weapons and gear, and improve your operation. Campaign runs use randomized missions and starting conditions, and fallen characters can be lost for that run; boss-level progression also grants permanent unlocks. Other options include co-op story missions, randomized heists, and a mode focused on surviving enemy waves.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its heist loop, especially the choice to approach jobs quietly or turn them into firefights. The solo roguelite campaign and its crew-building, territory-taking progression also appeal to some, while co-op and the knowingly over-the-top crime-movie tone add to the fun for others. Reviews are mixed: recurring complaints include unreliable AI teammates, technical problems, and missions that can feel repetitive.
Rockay City is still alive and kicking – with new content being added throughout 2025! New adventures await, buddy.
