[💸UPD] Steal an Employee
The basic game loop
Step
Each session starts with a infiltration phase where you sneak into a company and collect employees. Once you have grabbed what you can, you need to escape before the boss finds you. Back at your own office, you place those employees at desks so they start generating cash.
- Sneak in enter the company and start collecting employees without being spotted.
- Escape get out before the boss catches you, or the run counts as a failure.
- Reveal your hire find out whether you grabbed something rare.
- Seat employees place each employee at a desk to put them to work.
- Collect earnings pull cash from your vault, including anything that built up while you were offline.
- Upgrade spend that cash on desks, office expansions, speed, or vehicles, then run again.

Employee rarity tiers
Tips
Employees come in different rarity levels, ranging from common Normal employees up through Secret, Mythic, and Divine. A fresh set of rare employees appears every night, so logging in regularly gives you the best shot at the higher tiers.
- Secret, Mythic, and Divine employees are the higher rarity tiers.
- New rare employees spawn each night.
- After a run, the reveal shows which rarity you actually grabbed — a Legendary reveal is the highlight moment.
Speed upgrades and vehicles
Check
The boss is the main obstacle inside the company. Buying speed upgrades and vehicles lets you cover more ground before he spots you, and makes getting out much less stressful.
- Speed upgrades are available to purchase and raise your movement rate.
- Vehicles can be bought and let you cross the company faster than running alone.
Playing with other players
Warn
Sessions support up to five players at once. That cooperation can help, but it also means rivals. Any player can bonk another to steal the employees they are carrying, so you need to think about both offense and defense.
Offline income and the vault
Summary
As long as employees are seated at desks, they generate cash even when you are not playing. That money collects in your vault until you log back in and claim it.
- Offline earnings cash builds in the vault while you are away.
- Vault collection grab the accumulated income each session to fund upgrades.
