Heist
Here are two creepy treats that will have you playing the role of a thief to avoid death traps in a creepy, abandoned house while seeking out some loot. And you might not get out alive. Cat burglars might have nine lives, but common thieves only get three. Using your mouse navigate through creepy, old houses to find keys, unlock doors, search rooms, and use objects to assist you in your thieving quest.

Well, I feel incompetent. I've got the Matches, Extension Cord, and two keys (large and small), and I'm now stuck and unable to make any progress. Any ideas?
I'm enjoying the first one so far. I don't mind the random deaths since it doesn't take much time to get back where you were.
Has anyone been able to pick up the plunger?
And I'm stuck
In the crawlspace under the bathroom. How do you get past the ghost cat?
Walkthrough anyone?
@ Arainach:
Have you tried using your matches everywhere?
@ HulaZombie
If you haven't yet used the plunger you can't get past the ghost/demon under the bathroom. You need to use the plunger by
clicking on the 'Use' button, then the plunger, then the 'Use' button and then the sink. Doing that will clear the drain, and all plumbing is connected throughout a house...well, it's best to make sure anyway
I'm stuck really early on in the first one; I'm wondering if I'm missing something or if something's wrong.
I've been able to
obtain a bottle which appears to have an eye in it by
using the plunger in the kitchen sink
, but I can't seem to find any other objects (except some writing on the wall), and can't seem to interact with anything else.
Both bedrooms are locked, I can't find a way to the entrance hall, and that's about it.
@Marcmagus:
Did you click on the note pinned to the kitchen wall?
I feel like a fail.
I can't get anywhere in the first one.
Ashiel, I did too, until I found:
a small key in the bathroom
on the sink
But I need help with the demon. I have
the empty bottle after killing the teddy bear from H311
Thanks! I knew the plunger was related to the
err...water in the toilet.
but I couldn't figure out how to use it.
Any hints for the ghostcat? I have
bedroom key, matches, extension cord, hammer, three coins, an empty bottle, two smaller keys, and a disturbing portrait.
Well, I'm at a loss. I
killed the teddy bear, got the large ruby from under the floorboards in the bedroom and found 3 coins
and now I'm stuck. How do I
get past the cat ghost under the bathroom
???
@HulaZombie
The disturbing portrait
needs to be rehung somewhere for another clue
@Ground Chuck
Do you have
all three coins and
there's another piece of loot to be found before you can continue past the demon
where do you find the third coin? i have
ruby, two keys, empty bottle, hammer, matches and a key .... i tied the extension cord to the rusty pipe but i cant continue...
@Chiuni
Coin locations:
Under the bathroom
Two in the closet once you've dealt with the vicious bear. When you're in the closet, move your cursor around the right of the screen, find a clickable navigation point, and you should be able to go further into the closet to locate two items, including another coin
Have the 3 coins, no other loot
Ruby?
And where's the writing on the wall?
@Chiktionary
I see no note pinned to the kitchen wall. However, I'd missed the key on the bathroom sink, so that helped.
Never mind, I found it
X marks the spot
for the ruby:
the hint on the picture once you hang it on the wall says "X marks the spot"
need more?
go to the bedroom and open the blinds, click in the middle of the X that appears on the floor
@Ground Chuck
When you put the portrait on the wall, you'll get a close-up of the bottom of the picture showing you another clue
X MarkSpot - where have you possible seen an X or a cross in the house?
The writing on the wall
Is somewhere around the first hallway, a clickable point on the door frame. Bit of pixel hunting for that one though :\
wheres the note on the wall? i thought i had everything but i still die when i
jump down the tunnel
@MarcMagus
Agh! Sorry!
That's for the next Heist.
Sorry about the brain-fudge.
Thanks Chiktionary!
I'm out of the first one, now to roll up my sleeves for the second one.
@Chiuni
To go down the tunnel
Once you've attached the extension cord to the rusty pipe, click the 'Use' button then click on the extension cord, then click on the hole, and then click on 'Go Down'
Sorry, I was mistaken about the note. I'm in two places at once. :\
what do you do with the coins? the hints are sooo vague....
Heist 1 Walkthrough:
A couple of things that might be handy to know before you start:
Random Death Sequences
These will occur at random points throughout the game. If you manage to beat them they will keep occurring. You'll know when one is about to happen when a cut-scene begins.
#1
This one happens in the kitchen.
When you see your character onscreen, hit the right arrow on your keyboard, to avoid receiving an axe in the back of the head. I haven't seen any variations on this one.
#2
This one happens in the bedroom.
When you see your character walking in through the door, get your mouse ready to click on a red spot that will appear with the accompanying words "Click Here". This one varies. Sometimes it's on the left. Sometimes it's on the right.
Utility Room
Nothing to do in this room.
Hallway 1
Note a space for a picture on the wall, a bedroom door and a clue can be located at the base of the doorframe leading to the Living Room.
Living Room
Note the chandelier
Kitchen
Note the locked cupboards, and the plunger next to the sink.
Hallway 2
Two doors, one to the bathroom and one cracked one to a bedroom. Note the cobwebs.
Bathroom
Take the (bedroom) key from the sink. Note the hole in the floorboards. Hole is too small to fit through for now. Look in the toilet. Yup, it's gross. Go back to the bedroom in Hallway 1.
Bedroom
An empty room, except for the curtained window. Open the curtains.
A little bit of pixel hunting here to locate the end of the cord, bottom right of the window.
Take matches. Go back to the living room.
Living Room
Light a match and use it on the chandelier.
When all 6 candles are lit, a panel will appear on the wall.
Click on the panel to take the (kitchen cupboard) key
Kitchen
Open the right cupboard and take the extension cord.
Click "Use" then click on the plunger and then the sink. Go back to Hallway 2.
Hallway 2
Use a match on the cobwebs to retrieve a hammer.
Bathroom
Check the toilet again and find a bottle.
Use the hammer on the cracked pipe under the sink. Take (closet) key.
Easter Egg
Light a match and hold it up to the mirror
Aaaaarrrggghhh!!!!
Now to that hole. Click on it to remove more of the floorboards. Down we go.
Under the Bathroom
A harmless little demon. Locate the bird emblem coin and take it. Go straight back up into the bathroom before the demon decides to get all malevolent. Then go back to the bedroom.
Bedroom
Click on the closet door and note the cute teddy bear with one eye.
Click to the right inside the closet and take the freaky picture and the snake emblem coin. Now back to the teddy bear.
Where could the bear's other eye be?
Check the bottle you extracted from the toilet.
Return the eye to it's rightful owner.
BATTLE!!
Watch the cut-scene as the bear comes to life. Get your reflexes ready.
The bear will emerge from the closet and the battle begins. You'll need to hit the corresponding arrow keys on your keyboard to avoid his knives and the laser beams that shoot from his eye-sockets.
The keyboard sequence is as follows:
Left
Down
Right
Up
Spacebar - quickly and repeatedly
Now that you've knocked the stuffing out of that bear, look in the closet again for the snake emblem coin, then head back to Hallway 1
Hallway 1
Hang the picture and note the clue that appears
X MarkSpot
Where have you seen an X in the house?
The bedroom window perhaps…
Bedroom
Open the curtains again.
The shadow of a big cross appears on the floor.
Click on the very centre of the cross.
Take the ruby necklace.
Time to confront some demons.
Under the Bathroom
Click at the far end of this room. There's a small opening in the corner.
Secret Room
Another great big hole. To get down safely you'll need something like a rope.
Click on the extension cord and then on the rusty pipe. The cord will attach.
To use the extension cord, click "Use" then on the extension cord, and then on the hole. Click "Go Down"
Acid Pit
Thankfully you get an unlimited number of attempts to traverse this acid pit.
Keyboard sequence is as follows:
Up
Right
Left
Right
Left
Up
Up
Now you'll find yourself looking at a wall with a green wheel. Click on it for a close-up.
Here's where you insert the 3 emblem coins collected throughout the house. Note the numbered spaces.
Insert the coins in the following order:
Mouse
Snake
Bird
3 Different Solutions
Solution 1 (gets you $500,000) :
Mouse=1
Snake=3
Bird=5
Solution 2 (gets you $1000,000):
Mouse=3
Snake=4
Bird=1
Solution 3 (gets you $3,500,000):
Mouse=2
Snake=4
Bird=5
Ending, or is it just the beginning…?
Depending on the amount of money you manage to nab, you can unlock special features once you've completed the game. Go to the main menu, select "Unlocks" and shop away.
In the second one I have:
matches, a crowbar, and two keys
and I've
looted the guy upstairs and taken the painting off the wall. I don't have any idea what the safe combination might be though.
Am I missing something obvious?
@HulaZombie
You'll need to locate some pieces of paper to get the combination. Have you gotten into the upstairs bedroom and explored up there?
I've been in
the bloody room, and got some mystery meat. I haven't been in the spider room yet though.
I thought I could throw the meat out the window and try to lure it away, but no dice.
mm...the hungry dog doesn't like meat?
i could knock him out, can't I?
Match? what is it good for?
ok...i found some more things
use crowbar to open up washing machine and you get a key to bathroom
how to combine the items?
im so confused on the 2nd game.
i have the...
matches, meat, crowbar, knife and pills. also the keys for the hallway, bathroom, bedroom and storage room. cant seem to figure out how to get past either beast.
it looks like the...
vent in the bathroom will somehow let you dispatch the giant spider. unfortunately i cant seem to figure it out.
power of posting!!! hahaha
@Infeliciter
You're on the right track regarding the vent, but you'll need an extra item that's in the room protected by the dog. Well know that dogs eat meat, but feeding this one won't just pacify him. You've got something else in your inventory that can be used as well...
@Leoskie
What are you trying to combine?
You can't combine things in your inventory, you need to use them one after the other.
Hope that helps :-)
Can someone please tell me where to get
the matches? They are the only item I absolutely can't find.
@ThemePark
when doing laundry where do you lose things?
in between the wash and dryer
Just played first one.
Game's pretty terrible.
Parts are too pixel huntish, quick time events are the pariah of any gamer's life, you only get about a quarter second to respond to some quick times (the average human reaction time is .5 seconds, so you have to play each part repeatedly to memorize the combination. or that you're supposed to click a certain spot to not get your face sliced off), and you have to start over completely when you lose all three lives.
Oh, I forgot to complain about the purchasable items that don't seem to do anything.
Yeah, forget the second game.
There's some dumb quick time battle sequence and no matter how faster I press spacebar it doesn't do anything, so I guess it's something I'll never get to complete.
Is anyone else confused by the wonky controls? The "use" button just makes a sound and I don't know when/if you really need to press it when interacting with stuff. The keys seem to work by themselves, but everything else feels difficult to manage and it's hard to know if something didn't work because it's not supposed to, or if it was just the wrong pixel to press... Also, I tried to turn around and go back into the supply room, plus find the main entrance shown on the map, for a very long time.
The second game is far better than the first one.
I'm going to play again to find more money stacks and possibly find an alternate storyline.
I played through the second twice, but it didn't save my money.
Both games suffer from glaring UI problems (pixel hunting and the unintuitive "use" button that doesn't even change the cursor in game one, that awful "field of view moves with your mouse cursor" effect in game two), and the concept of "lives" in a game is a concept that was annoying back when it had a purpose (getting kids to put more quarters in machines) and is inexcusable these days.
I have pretty fast reflexes, but couldn't get past the
acid trap
on the first game. After trying about ten times, I gave up. I didn't even try to play the second one.
I did like
fighting the teddy bear, except for the annoying keyboard use.
This really should not have the "pointandclick" tag.
Heist 2 walkthrough:
Object of the game
The object of this chapter is to find 8 stashes of cash hidden around the house, not including the money that's in the safe, and get out alive. There‘s a Save feature in this game and it‘s highly recommended.
Crowbar locations
The crowbar, a tool with multiple uses, will be in one of three locations, which changes each game.
In the laundry to the right of the dryer.
Under the spiral staircase.
On the back of the sofa upstairs (near the bedroom door).
Random Death Sequence (RDS) info
Going from the hallway with the picture to the staircase (that's hitting the down arrow at the bottom of the screen like you're going backwards) there's some acid goo sticking to the top of the doorframe. There's a brief cut-scene showing the green goo. Hit the right arrow when you see the shot of the thief directly after seeing the goo. Even if you beat the goo, this sequence is likely to occur again during the game.
This one's a one-off event. When you hear the telephone ringing and go back to answer it, you'll see a zombie outside on the balcony, moving from the left of screen. All you need to do is click on the door- latch to lock the zombie out. If you've saved your progress you might want to watch what happens. You've got nothing to lose - except one of your three lives.
The RDS at the end of the game is not really random, because it happens every time you play at the same point in the game. It's basically a battle with the zombie, using your arrow keys. I found that hitting the keys rapidly and repeatedly worked best. The keyboard sequence is:-
Down
Down
Up
Spacebar
As soon as the thief has punched the zombie hit the space bar as quickly as possible. Hopefully, the thief will snap out of his stupor and finish the battle.
Money Stash Locations
There are eight stashes of money apart from the loot in the safe, and they can be found with some patient pixel hunting. Locations as follows:
When you're outside on the balcony looking in to the room with the spiral staircase, there's a stash in the bottom left corner of the screen.
On the right side of the staircase in the spiral staircase room
On the left side of the couch upstairs
In the drawer by the microwave (opened by crowbar)
On the body lying on the couch
In the box on the top shelf in the room with the dog
In the storage room where you find the gasoline, under the table near the thief's avatar.
In the spider's lair, in the webbing on the bottom left corner of the room
Foyer
There's absolutely nothing to do in this room.
Kitchen
Very basic. You can try opening the door but it will show a padlock indicating it's locked. A microwave oven, some locked drawers, a noticeboard with a memo and a note. Click the note, read something about locking doors. Click ‘X' and take the key that falls onto the bench. You can try using the key on the door but it won‘t work. The door just has a latch that can be unlocked by clicking on it.
Balcony
There's not a lot to experience on the balcony other than the atmosphere of creepiness and stormy weather.
Money Stash #1
Go to the window at the end of the balcony, that looks in to the room with the spiral staircase. Click around the bottom left of the screen.
Head back inside and head to the Living Room if you like. Well that's where we're going in the walkthrough.
Living Room
Not much to see right now. A telephone plugged into the wall. Doors that can be latched and unlatched. Next we‘re going to see what‘s on the other side of the foyer.
Foyer B
In this foyer there are three doors - the front door, bathroom and hallway. The key you got in the kitchen fits the hallway door lock.
Hallway
*RDS Alert*
Acid Goo above the thief. A quick cut-scene will show you the dripping goo. As soon as it cuts back to the thief, hit the right arrow on your keyboard and he should calmly step to the side.
A painting nailed to the wall and 3 ways to go. Here the down arrow does not take you back to the second foyer, which is mildly annoying. The down arrow takes you to the room with the spiral staircase. The right arrow goes into a laundry, or utilities room. It's the left arrow that will take you back to the second foyer. Next up is info on the laundry room.
Laundry/Utilities Room
You might find a crowbar here, and you might not. What you will find is that the dryer is locked (?!) and the washer's lid is stuck. You will also find a book of matches when you click between the washer and the dryer. Click back to the hallway then the down arrow to go to the room with the staircase.
Room with Staircase
The crowbar might be here under the stairs. Money Stash #2
Click around to the right of the spiral staircase.
Click on the stairs to go up.
Room with the Couch
Nice. Someone's left a dead body on the lounge. And the telephone's just started to ring. If you haven't found the crowbar by now, it will be here on the top/back of the couch.
Money Stash #3
Click around the left side of the couch.
Money Stash #4
Click on the dead body
You can try the bedroom door but it's locked for now. The telephone is still ringing. Maybe answer it?
Room with the Telephone *RDS Alert*
The moon looks beautiful. And there's a cut-scene happening. A zombie is just outside and looks like it wants in.
Make sure the door's locked or the zombie will get in and take one of your lives. It's actually kinda cool to watch if you think you can spare a life.
Now that we've got a crowbar, let's try it out.
Kitchen
After hearing the thump from upstairs and watching plaster fall from the ceiling you can go into the kitchen. Creepy zombie is back! The crowbar will open a limited number of drawers. Here you'll find another key (bathroom), and possibly Money Stash #5.
Bathroom
Using the key from the kitchen drawer, access the bathroom where you will find some pills next to the sink, and a knife on the toilet cistern. Note the towels. Note the vent that can be switched on and off. Now we'll try the crowbar in the laundry.
Laundry
Use the crowbar on the washer to obtain the bedroom key. The dryer is unlockable. Now we'll go use the key upstairs.
Hallway
On your way past, use the crowbar on the painting nails, to reveal a safe. Because we‘re passing into the staircase room, *RDS Alert*, the acid goo again, possibly. If not this time, next time. You just never know. It is a ‘Random' Death Sequence after all.
Bedroom
Three directions here - left, right and forward. Click to go forward. Can't enter this room yet, but would you want to? Take note of the air vent near the spider. Back out and go right.
Darkened Room
You'll see light coming in through a window with what looks like blood splashed on the pane. If you move your cursor around the left of the screen, you'll find a clickable point which is a light switch. Creepy moment when the light comes on to reveal blood spattered walls and some floppy, mysterious meat. Take the meat and head back out and left.
Room with the Dog
Oh no. It's another teddy bear. Looks harmless this time, but so did the last one. Use the knife to reveal some stuffing and a key for the storage room. Check the boxes on the shelves and locate Money Stash #6. It would be nice to befriend the dog to get past it, but floppy, mysterious meat is not enough to pacify. There's something else you're carrying that might help.
The pills. Put them in the dog's bowl, then put the floppy, mysterious meat on top. The dog will eat and go to sleep. Yes, that's right. He's only sleeping.
Storage Room
Not much to see here. Take the can of gasoline, and click under the table near the avatar's head for Money Stash #7. Next part of the walkthrough takes place in the bathroom.
Bathroom
Turn the air vent on, and use the gasoline and the matches on the towels. The matches won't work unless the vent is on. Note the smoke going in to the vent. That should take care of Eency-Weency.
Room with the Spider
You‘ll first see the spider on its back, twitching, before you can enter the room. Once inside, note the spider victim, and take the small piece of paper near the victim's foot, behind some webbing. Also, Money Stash #8 can be located
in the webbing, bottom left corner
Best make sure the fire is out.
Bathroom
The fire is out, and the towels have been reduced to ash. And there's a small piece of paper. Another number.
BIG SPOILER
Cheat aka Battle avoidance:
You can actually avoid any further death sequences and use the two numbers you've got on the safe, and guess the third. When you click on the pieces of paper, they'll appear on your screen in the order that they need to be entered in to the safe, from top to bottom. So you can guess the missing number, and leave via the front door. Or you can try for that last piece of paper, because it will look good in your stats at the end of the game.
Room with the telephone
*RDS Alert*
This isn't so random and happens every game, same place, and same point in the game. As soon as you step into this room again, a cut-scene will start. The keyboard sequence is
Down
Down
Up
Spacebar
As soon as the thief has punched the zombie, hit the space bar as quickly as possible. Hopefully the thief will snap out of his stupor and finish the battle.
Take the last piece of paper and head back to the safe.
End
Once you've entered the numbers and taken the loot, you can leave via the front door. The ending is basically a display of your game stats. There is a store where you can ‘purchase' some night vision goggles, which will enhance the game next time you play.
Thanks to Oz Mafioso for help with locating the money stashes :-) Oz is currently working on Heist 3, which is due to be released in the very near future.
Extra info for the Heist 1 walkthrough - an explanation of the coin clues from Oz Mafioso
Mouse1 + Snake3 + Bird5 = $500,000 - Clue: "In the order of life, the odds should you favor" meaning snake eats the mouse and bird eats the snake so smallest to largest, and to only put the coins in odd numbers only.
Bird5 + Snake4 + Mouse2 = $3,500,000 - Clue: "With 11 total, 5 can take flight" meaning their numbered places will add up to 11 and the bird would be in the 5 slot and the snake in 4 and the mouse in 2, adding up to 11.
Mouse3 + Bird1 + Snake4 = $1,000,000 - Clue: "With 8 in total, half in form of a serpent" meaning the snake is half of 8 so it would go in 4 and the Bird in 1 and the mouse in 3, adding up to 8.
Thanks Oz!
Thanks Chiktionary! I am honored that you took the time to review some of my work :) I learned a lot while making these and I promise that Heist III will deliver! Expect it no later than Halloween 2011! Oh!
Orchestrated Death 2 will be out any day now, it's finished, just have to make a couple things final and it should hit the web in the next couple days to early November. Just figured I'd throw that out there in case you might want to review it :)
Thanks again!
Oz Mafioso
@Tran:
Sorry you hated the game :( like I mentioned previously, I learned a lot from making the first 2 and I'll attempt to fix any issues people found with the first 2.
Now as far as the ending fight scene, it's fairly simple, just tap the space key as fast as you can. It's at a pace that anyone should be able to manage, maybe I should have made it more clear on the speed of tapping or something of the sort or maybe a counter to add up how many taps were needed.
@Oz Mafioso
The fact is I was tapping the space bar as fast as I could. It didn't seem to help.
@Oz Mafioso
Out of fairness, I will play the new game you have coming out. We'll see what all you learned.
@Trun:
Sorry for misspelling your name the first time. Sorry it didn't work out for ya :( Thanks for playing however!
A great surprise to hear "Increased Chances" during the intro to #2! :)

Game of the week
Walkthrough Guide
(Please allow page to fully load for spoiler tags to be functional.)
Heist 1 Walkthrough:
A couple of things that might be handy to know before you start:
Random Death Sequences
These will occur at random points throughout the game. If you manage to beat them they will keep occurring. You'll know when one is about to happen when a cut-scene begins.
#1
This one happens in the kitchen.
When you see your character onscreen, hit the right arrow on your keyboard, to avoid receiving an axe in the back of the head. I haven't seen any variations on this one.
#2
This one happens in the bedroom.
When you see your character walking in through the door, get your mouse ready to click on a red spot that will appear with the accompanying words "Click Here". This one varies. Sometimes it's on the left. Sometimes it's on the right.
Utility Room
Nothing to do in this room.
Hallway 1
Note a space for a picture on the wall, a bedroom door and a clue can be located at the base of the doorframe leading to the Living Room.
Living Room
Note the chandelier
Kitchen
Note the locked cupboards, and the plunger next to the sink.
Hallway 2
Two doors, one to the bathroom and one cracked one to a bedroom. Note the cobwebs.
Bathroom
Take the (bedroom) key from the sink. Note the hole in the floorboards. Hole is too small to fit through for now. Look in the toilet. Yup, it's gross. Go back to the bedroom in Hallway 1.
Bedroom
An empty room, except for the curtained window. Open the curtains.
A little bit of pixel hunting here to locate the end of the cord, bottom right of the window.

Click on the closet door and note the cute teddy bear with one eye.
Click to the right inside the closet and take the freaky picture and the snake emblem coin. Now back to the teddy bear.
Where could the bear's other eye be?
Check the bottle you extracted from the toilet.
Return the eye to it's rightful owner.
BATTLE!!
Watch the cut-scene as the bear comes to life. Get your reflexes ready.
The bear will emerge from the closet and the battle begins. You'll need to hit the corresponding arrow keys on your keyboard to avoid his knives and the laser beams that shoot from his eye-sockets.
The keyboard sequence is as follows:

Spacebar - quickly and repeatedly
Now that you've knocked the stuffing out of that bear, look in the closet again for the snake emblem coin, then head back to Hallway 1

Heist 2 walkthrough:
Object of the game
The object of this chapter is to find 8 stashes of cash hidden around the house, not including the money that's in the safe, and get out alive. There‘s a Save feature in this game and it‘s highly recommended.
Crowbar locations
The crowbar, a tool with multiple uses, will be in one of three locations, which changes each game.
In the laundry to the right of the dryer.
Under the spiral staircase.
On the back of the sofa upstairs (near the bedroom door).
Random Death Sequence (RDS) info
Going from the hallway with the picture to the staircase (that's hitting the down arrow at the bottom of the screen like you're going backwards) there's some acid goo sticking to the top of the doorframe. There's a brief cut-scene showing the green goo. Hit the right arrow when you see the shot of the thief directly after seeing the goo. Even if you beat the goo, this sequence is likely to occur again during the game.
This one's a one-off event. When you hear the telephone ringing and go back to answer it, you'll see a zombie outside on the balcony, moving from the left of screen. All you need to do is click on the door- latch to lock the zombie out. If you've saved your progress you might want to watch what happens. You've got nothing to lose - except one of your three lives.
The RDS at the end of the game is not really random, because it happens every time you play at the same point in the game. It's basically a battle with the zombie, using your arrow keys. I found that hitting the keys rapidly and repeatedly worked best. The keyboard sequence is:-
Down
Down
Up
Spacebar
As soon as the thief has punched the zombie hit the space bar as quickly as possible. Hopefully, the thief will snap out of his stupor and finish the battle.
Money Stash Locations
There are eight stashes of money apart from the loot in the safe, and they can be found with some patient pixel hunting. Locations as follows:
When you're outside on the balcony looking in to the room with the spiral staircase, there's a stash in the bottom left corner of the screen.
On the right side of the staircase in the spiral staircase room
On the left side of the couch upstairs
In the drawer by the microwave (opened by crowbar)
On the body lying on the couch
In the box on the top shelf in the room with the dog
In the storage room where you find the gasoline, under the table near the thief's avatar.
In the spider's lair, in the webbing on the bottom left corner of the room
Foyer
There's absolutely nothing to do in this room.
Kitchen
Very basic. You can try opening the door but it will show a padlock indicating it's locked. A microwave oven, some locked drawers, a noticeboard with a memo and a note. Click the note, read something about locking doors. Click ‘X' and take the key that falls onto the bench. You can try using the key on the door but it won‘t work. The door just has a latch that can be unlocked by clicking on it.
Balcony
There's not a lot to experience on the balcony other than the atmosphere of creepiness and stormy weather.
Money Stash #1
Go to the window at the end of the balcony, that looks in to the room with the spiral staircase. Click around the bottom left of the screen.
Head back inside and head to the Living Room if you like. Well that's where we're going in the walkthrough.
Living Room
Not much to see right now. A telephone plugged into the wall. Doors that can be latched and unlatched. Next we‘re going to see what‘s on the other side of the foyer.
Foyer B
In this foyer there are three doors - the front door, bathroom and hallway. The key you got in the kitchen fits the hallway door lock.
Hallway
*RDS Alert*
Acid Goo above the thief. A quick cut-scene will show you the dripping goo. As soon as it cuts back to the thief, hit the right arrow on your keyboard and he should calmly step to the side.
A painting nailed to the wall and 3 ways to go. Here the down arrow does not take you back to the second foyer, which is mildly annoying. The down arrow takes you to the room with the spiral staircase. The right arrow goes into a laundry, or utilities room. It's the left arrow that will take you back to the second foyer. Next up is info on the laundry room.
Laundry/Utilities Room
You might find a crowbar here, and you might not. What you will find is that the dryer is locked (?!) and the washer's lid is stuck. You will also find a book of matches when you click between the washer and the dryer. Click back to the hallway then the down arrow to go to the room with the staircase.
Room with Staircase
The crowbar might be here under the stairs. Money Stash #2
Click around to the right of the spiral staircase.
Click on the stairs to go up.
Room with the Couch
Nice. Someone's left a dead body on the lounge. And the telephone's just started to ring. If you haven't found the crowbar by now, it will be here on the top/back of the couch.
Money Stash #3
Click around the left side of the couch.
Money Stash #4
Click on the dead body
You can try the bedroom door but it's locked for now. The telephone is still ringing. Maybe answer it?
Room with the Telephone *RDS Alert*
The moon looks beautiful. And there's a cut-scene happening. A zombie is just outside and looks like it wants in.
Make sure the door's locked or the zombie will get in and take one of your lives. It's actually kinda cool to watch if you think you can spare a life.
Now that we've got a crowbar, let's try it out.
Kitchen
After hearing the thump from upstairs and watching plaster fall from the ceiling you can go into the kitchen. Creepy zombie is back! The crowbar will open a limited number of drawers. Here you'll find another key (bathroom), and possibly Money Stash #5.
Bathroom
Using the key from the kitchen drawer, access the bathroom where you will find some pills next to the sink, and a knife on the toilet cistern. Note the towels. Note the vent that can be switched on and off. Now we'll try the crowbar in the laundry.
Laundry
Use the crowbar on the washer to obtain the bedroom key. The dryer is unlockable. Now we'll go use the key upstairs.
Hallway
On your way past, use the crowbar on the painting nails, to reveal a safe. Because we‘re passing into the staircase room, *RDS Alert*, the acid goo again, possibly. If not this time, next time. You just never know. It is a ‘Random' Death Sequence after all.
Bedroom
Three directions here - left, right and forward. Click to go forward. Can't enter this room yet, but would you want to? Take note of the air vent near the spider. Back out and go right.
Darkened Room
You'll see light coming in through a window with what looks like blood splashed on the pane. If you move your cursor around the left of the screen, you'll find a clickable point which is a light switch. Creepy moment when the light comes on to reveal blood spattered walls and some floppy, mysterious meat. Take the meat and head back out and left.
Room with the Dog
Oh no. It's another teddy bear. Looks harmless this time, but so did the last one. Use the knife to reveal some stuffing and a key for the storage room. Check the boxes on the shelves and locate Money Stash #6. It would be nice to befriend the dog to get past it, but floppy, mysterious meat is not enough to pacify. There's something else you're carrying that might help.
The pills. Put them in the dog's bowl, then put the floppy, mysterious meat on top. The dog will eat and go to sleep. Yes, that's right. He's only sleeping.
Storage Room
Not much to see here. Take the can of gasoline, and click under the table near the avatar's head for Money Stash #7. Next part of the walkthrough takes place in the bathroom.
Bathroom
Turn the air vent on, and use the gasoline and the matches on the towels. The matches won't work unless the vent is on. Note the smoke going in to the vent. That should take care of Eency-Weency.
Room with the Spider
You‘ll first see the spider on its back, twitching, before you can enter the room. Once inside, note the spider victim, and take the small piece of paper near the victim's foot, behind some webbing. Also, Money Stash #8 can be located
in the webbing, bottom left corner
Best make sure the fire is out.
Bathroom
The fire is out, and the towels have been reduced to ash. And there's a small piece of paper. Another number.
BIG SPOILER
Cheat aka Battle avoidance:
You can actually avoid any further death sequences and use the two numbers you've got on the safe, and guess the third. When you click on the pieces of paper, they'll appear on your screen in the order that they need to be entered in to the safe, from top to bottom. So you can guess the missing number, and leave via the front door. Or you can try for that last piece of paper, because it will look good in your stats at the end of the game.
Room with the telephone
*RDS Alert*
This isn't so random and happens every game, same place, and same point in the game. As soon as you step into this room again, a cut-scene will start. The keyboard sequence is
Down
Down
Up
Spacebar
As soon as the thief has punched the zombie, hit the space bar as quickly as possible. Hopefully the thief will snap out of his stupor and finish the battle.
Take the last piece of paper and head back to the safe.
End
Once you've entered the numbers and taken the loot, you can leave via the front door. The ending is basically a display of your game stats. There is a store where you can ‘purchase' some night vision goggles, which will enhance the game next time you play.
Thanks to Oz Mafioso for help with locating the money stashes :-) Oz is currently working on Heist 3, which is due to be released in the very near future.

Extra info for the Heist 1 walkthrough - an explanation of the coin clues from Oz Mafioso
Mouse1 + Snake3 + Bird5 = $500,000 - Clue: "In the order of life, the odds should you favor" meaning snake eats the mouse and bird eats the snake so smallest to largest, and to only put the coins in odd numbers only.
Bird5 + Snake4 + Mouse2 = $3,500,000 - Clue: "With 11 total, 5 can take flight" meaning their numbered places will add up to 11 and the bird would be in the 5 slot and the snake in 4 and the mouse in 2, adding up to 11.
Mouse3 + Bird1 + Snake4 = $1,000,000 - Clue: "With 8 in total, half in form of a serpent" meaning the snake is half of 8 so it would go in 4 and the Bird in 1 and the mouse in 3, adding up to 8.
Thanks Oz!
