About the Game

Crime Simulator: Playgrounds is a short, hilarious, and over-the-top entry in the Crime Simulator franchise, where the goal isn’t just crime—it’s absolute mayhem. Enjoy ridiculous chaos solo or with friends, and embrace the wildest side of being a criminal.

Have you ever wanted to throw a hammer at someone’s face? Now you can. How about pepper-spraying an entire street just for fun? Absolutely. Should a sledgehammer be so massive that it shouldn't even be legal? We got you.

Play with up to 4 players, cause havoc, steal, brawl, and take over hideouts in fully open free-roam areas. Every mission is an excuse for madness—rob stores, demolish hideouts with grenade launchers, or booby-trap a rival’s getaway car with landmines. No logic, no rules—just fun.

Got friends? Great! Crime is better together. Work as a team, complete insane objectives and share the chaos. Voice and text chat included.

No friends? No problem! Play offline and enjoy the destruction on your own.

Every fight is a playground—cops, civilians, rival gangs—everyone is a target. Grab a baseball bat, throw a crowbar at full speed, or turn an enemy into a human fireworks show.
