Hideout Modes

At A Glance

Crime Simulator Golden Cards on Steam Criminal Simulator (CookieDev) are rare run modifiers: extra stats, camera help, longer timers, better shop prices, more yield. A community dump lists about 24 cards — treat that count as Unverified. This page will not invent a complete name list to look finished. Verified October 29, 2026 · Steam.

Cards sit next to hideout furniture, skills, and the four voucher abilities. Furniture is the upgrade that Standard deaths do not steal. Cards are the bonus. Mode wipe rules: game modes.

What is a Crime Simulator Golden Card?

A Golden Card is a rare collectible modifier, not a skill leaflet and not a hideout bed. Community writeups describe effects that change the next job: bigger stats, cameras that bother you less, more time on the quota clock, kinder shop prices, more cash from the same bag, extra forgiveness when a guard spots you, or a map condition that is usually worse. None of those bullets is a card title. Titles stay TBA until a dated HUD still names them.

Effect class	What it would change	Name on this wiki
Stats	Health, speed, carry, stealth numbers	TBA
Cameras	Fewer cameras, easier disable, or ignore windows	TBA
Timers	Longer job / quota window	TBA
Shop prices	Cheaper tools, furniture, or truck stock	TBA
Yield	More money from the same loot	TBA
Forgiveness	Extra mistake room vs guards or cops	TBA
Map condition	A specific location gets easier or harder	TBA

Why this page refuses a 24-name dump

One community project catalogued about twenty-four cards. That is a useful ceiling, not an official roster. Copying unverified names trains the wrong Google snippet and sends players looking for a card that never existed on their patch. If you find a card in-game, match it to an effect class in the table and keep the HUD string. Until then, empty cells are honest.

Cards are not leaflets

Skill Leaflets unlock skills when you also have a skill point. Golden Cards do not replace that pair. You can have lockpicking without any card, and a card does not spend a leaflet. If a recap mixes the two, it is talking about two inventories. Persistence — who keeps what after a wipe — is the part that actually changes how you play.

Do Golden Cards survive a failed quota?

Assume Standard is more forgiving than Hardcore, then confirm on your save. Recaps: quota failure or finishing a run can consume or clear cards. Death in Standard usually drops equipped tools and truck loot but keeps hideout upgrades, levels, skills, and stored cash — cards often travel with that kept slice, but that is Confirm in-mode, not a guarantee. Hardcore can reset level and money on a failed quota; do not bet a Hardcore save on a modifier you cannot re-earn the same night.

Event	Tools / truck loot	Hideout / skills / cash	Golden Cards
Standard death	Usually lost	Usually kept	Often kept — confirm HUD
Standard quota fail	Run loot at risk	Usually kept	May consume — Unverified
Hardcore quota fail	Wiped with the run	Level/money can reset	Treat as gone until proven
Run complete (any mode)	Sold / banked	Kept	May consume — Unverified
Endless (recap)	Daily loot reset	World rewards start unlocked	TBA per patch

Read the HUD, not a wiki rumor

If a card is in your collection, note whether it still sits there after you pay a quota, after you miss one, and after a cop kill. Three checks beat a copied table. If the card disappears, log the mode. This wiki would rather show Unverified than a fake “always keep” rule that wipes someone’s Hardcore week.

Finish-the-game consume

Several recaps say cards can vanish when you complete a run as well as when you fail one. That makes them closer to a run item than to a hideout bed. Bank cash and furniture first; treat the card as a bonus on the next loop. The system players confuse with cards the most is the voucher machine.

How do Golden Cards differ from voucher abilities?

Steam names four voucher abilities. Recaps: you buy a Voucher Machine for the hideout after completing the game at least once, then spend tickets / vouchers on challenges that grant timed abilities. That machine is why this page’s capture slots show hideout UI — it is adjacent, not a substitute Golden Card gallery. Do not file ability names as card names.

System	How you get it	How it spends	This wiki
Golden Cards	Rare collectibles (locations TBA)	May persist or consume by mode	Names TBA — effect classes only
Voucher abilities (4)	Voucher Machine after a completed game (recap)	Tickets + challenges; some last one day / one use	Separate page-adjacent system
Skill leaflets	Houses, safes, Truck Store	Point + leaflet to unlock a skill	Skills
Hideout furniture	Buy with quota cash	Permanent in Standard	Hideout

Named voucher effects (recap, not cards)

Ability recaps — not Golden Card titles — include: no noise for one day, mark loot worth over $500, deliver two times the required quota as a challenge, call off police (one star even if you have more), and repair and unlock (called out as strong with a blowtorch). Official Steam copy matches the shape: cancel a police chase, repair loot and tools, swing a bad job, with per-run limits. Call-off-police is once per game in store copy.

Why the mix-up happens

Both systems modify a run. Both show up after you have already beaten the early quota loop. Both can involve cameras, loot highlights, and cops. The difference is the object: a card is a collectible whose name we will not guess; an ability is one of four voucher spends tied to a machine you place in the hideout. If your HUD says ability, it is not a Golden Card. Furniture still outranks both for save safety.

How do I collect Golden Cards without a fake name list?

Play Standard, hit quotas, and loot thoroughly. There is no published drop table. Recaps do not agree on rooms. Until a still shows a card pickup, this page will not name a drawer, a safe, or a named NPC as “the” source.

Do	Don’t
Loot safes, special boxes, and high-value rooms you already open	Follow a 24-name checklist from an unnamed dump
Note the HUD string if a card drops	Paste Roblox Criminal Simulator item names
Check collection after quota pay, fail, and death	Assume Hardcore keeps the same rules as Standard
Use a scanner (once unlocked) so you do not walk past value	Buy a script that claims card ESP
Bank hideout spend before a risky card hunt	Wipe a Hardcore save to “reroll cards”

Scanner helps value, not names

The scanner marks high-value loot. That can include whatever object a card drop uses — or it can just be jewelry. Either way you leave with money. A card hunt that skips the quota is a failed hunt.

Co-op does not spawn extra official names

Four players can cover more rooms. They cannot make this wiki publish a fake set. If your lobby finds a named card, keep the spelling. We will add rows when a HUD still exists. Until then the effect-class table is the whole catalog.

Should I chase cards before hideout furniture?

No. Bed, inventory, treadmill are the Steam-named pieces that keep paying after a Standard death. Cards may vanish on a quota fail or a completed run. Spend the first quotas on furniture and on the skill+leaflet pairs that open doors. Chase cards with leftover loops.

Spend	Survives Standard death	Priority
Hideout bed / training / treadmill	Yes	First furniture cash
Skill + leaflet (lockpicking, slots)	Yes	First skill points
Day-one tools (lockpick, bobby pin)	No if equipped on death	Every job
World-reward tools (zip ties, scanner)	No if equipped	After the computer row exists
Voucher Machine + abilities	Machine is furniture; uses are limited	After you have completed a game (recap)
Golden Cards	Unverified — may consume on fail/complete	After furniture and skills

A card is a multiplier on a working loop

Shop-price and yield cards only matter if you already extract and sell. Camera and timer cards only matter if you already enter without a bat fight. Build that loop on the beginner guide and the hideout page, then let a card make the next house kinder. If the card is gone tomorrow, the bed is not.

Hardcore changes the order, not the honesty

On Hardcore, a failed quota can reset level and money. Cards are an even worse sole plan. Stay on Standard until two quiet houses are automatic, then open a second save if you want the multiplier. Do not import a “golden card tier list” that ranks 24 invented titles. Rank effect classes: timers and yield help Standard farming; forgiveness helps Hardcore; camera help helps electronics-light kits. Names wait on HUD.
