About The Grand Planto Heists
The Grand Planto Heists is a quirky 3D adventure simulator where you play a raccoon obsessed with robbing suburban gardens. Developed by Morning Bean Media and released on December 31, 2026, it’s a single-player indie title for PC. The game blends stealth and resource management as you dig through soil, dodge Animal Control, and hoard random items with your critter crew. Set in a mockingly realistic neighborhood, it’s a low-stakes, high-charm romp. Think digging mechanics mixed with light heist planning, all viewed through a raccoon’s paw. Best for fans of absurdity and slow-paced antics.
Gameplay
Your core loop revolves around digging, sneaking, and scavenging. You use a tiny shovel to tunnel through soil and roots, avoiding motion sensors and patrolling humans. Each heist starts with a target garden: you’ll burrow in, grab loose items (like garden gnomes or fertilizer), and escape before getting trapped in a cage. Stealth is key, your energy bar depletes from stress, forcing you to hide or wait. Between jobs, you upgrade tools and recruit animal allies (a beaver with a chainsaw, a mole with radar). The camera often gets claustrophobic, but the controls feel snappy. Sessions average 30-60 minutes, though longer playthroughs let you map out complex routes.
What Players Think
PlayPile users rate it 84%, with 72% completing the main story. Average playtime is 15 hours, but 18% hit 30+ hours. Community moods skew mostly “amused” and “relaxed,” with 12% calling it “mind-numbing.” A top review says, “It’s the first game that made me laugh about stealing petunias.” Achievement completion sits at 68% overall, with the hardest unlock being “Escape with 50+ Items” (12% success). Critics note the repetitive stealth but praise the art style. The game’s $19.99 price tag makes it a low-risk buy, especially for fans of niche humor.
PlayPile's Take
The Grand Planto Heists is a niche win for fans of absurd, chill simulators. It’s not deep, but the charm of raccoon heists and the grind of planning escapes through dirt make it oddly addictive. With 125 achievements and 24 hours to hit 100%, it offers decent replay value for the price. Skip if you want high-stakes action or complex systems. Ideal for casual players who enjoy poking fun at suburban life. Just don’t expect it to outsmart you, it’s a raccoon game, after all.
