Put on a mask in Looty Bay and you are a Criminal until you leave the city. Die like that and your inventory is gone; surrender and the cop takes only your bag.

ROB RUN Wiki
Check what you keep before you pull on the mask
Early Access — 4 November 2026
A field file for Kefir's free crime sandbox: loss rules, heists, cops, the power pyramid and the weekly wipe, written as rulings you can check mid-run.
ROB RUN is a free-to-play crime sandbox from Kefir for 64-bit Windows 10 and later. The Steam store promises 5,000 players around you, and every cop and criminal is a real person. Each wipe you start as a Hobo fresh out of prison, staying at Lenny's motel with no cash, then pick a path: heists, cargo runs, base production, police work or territory.
Early Access opened on 4 November 2026 and Kefir expects it to last about 6 to 12 months. The game stays free; the only purchases are cosmetics bought with B-Coins, which do not touch stats, balance or progression.
01 First Wipe From Hobo at Lenny's motel to a rented plot: intro quests, a free rental car and your first score. 02 Loot Loss Eight rulings on what death, surrender, a bribe, the desert and the wipe take from you. 06 Map Looty Bay, the lawless desert and the districts where settlements, hubs and plots sit.
Field guide index
Nine more case files, one for each system you run into during your first week.
03 Heists Masks and Criminal status, scouting a target, Notoriety streaks and where the fence buys valuables. 04 Cops Enlisting at the Looty Bay Police Station, badges, backup calls and how officers get paid. 05 Power Pyramid Five tiers from Hobo to Shadow Governor, and the clan that holds the central Highlands district. 07 Base Item-based building, the Security System, fuses, decoders and base businesses. 08 Money Selling loot, cargo, production and taxes, plus laundering cash into a bank account. 09 Vehicles Free rentals at a Parking Terminal, owning a car, modules, helicopters and lockpicks. 10 Wipes The seven-day Federal Raid, what converts into jail time and authority, and what carries over. 11 Updates Official announcements and the launch-day balance changes in date order. 12 Fixes PC requirements, the mouse-polling FPS drop and the E-0101 and E-0110 connection errors.

Three ways to walk through Looty Bay
Without a mask you are a Civilian. A Civilian killed in the city keeps bag and gear, and the Looty Bay Bank only opens accounts for Civilians.
Enlist at the Looty Bay Police Station when slots are open to get standard gear and a patrol car. Cops are paid from confiscations, arrests and bribes.
Outside the city
The desert is lawless: any player can try to kill you there, and dying in it costs all your loot whatever your role.
