'The Diamond Casino Heist is an all-new approach to Heist architecture and execution: one huge gameplay-packed operation as you work with the Cheng family to infiltrate the most secure building in all of Los Santos. Jan 23, 2021 The Cayo Perico Heist can be done solo (Image via Rockstar Games) The most immediate difference between the Diamond Casino Heist and the Cayo Perico Heist is that gamers can do the latter solo. The Diamond Casino Heist was then made available in December, but there was one thing missing – the ability to steal diamonds. Rockstar Games GTA players have the option of doing their heist.

Specific Prep - Silent & Sneaky


Nano Drone
You have to drive round the city and shoot down drones used by the LSPD. Then just collect the dropped parts.
Vault Laser
Go out to the desert, fight some (OP) Army guys and search for the lasers. They look like this:
EMP Device

Go to LSIA and steal a cargobob. Then fly to the university, lift the EMP out (it is right on the open filed) and fly it to the substation of LS Water and Power right across the casino.
Infilitration Suits

Go out to Human Labs and kill the guards in your way (the alarm will trigger as soon as you enter) Bags are in the rear (where you have to par the Insurgent in the Human Labs Heist). Bags look like this:

Third Board - Heist


Your personal weapon arsenal can be collected in either Laundry or Waste Disposal

Silent and Sneaky


Take out the electric stuff with your stun gun
Kill the guards right away, DO NOT STUN THEM! Guards with a helmet can't be killed right away. You can kill them with your knife.

Gta Online Solo Heist

Our way through:
  • We went in through waste disposal, disabling the first metal detector, in the area behint it.
  • After that we opened up the guard rooms and killed the guards.
  • In the elevator bay, there is a button in the middle of the security room, right by the window, that opens the door of a small vault. There is the daily income in there, that you can steal. Press the button, let one guy go in, close the door and wait until he has emptied the vault. The vault can be opened from the inside.

We waited for the elevator guard to pass and opened up the stairs access.

The Big Con


Our settings where:
  • Entrance: Security Tunnel
  • Entry Disguise: Gruppe Sechs

  • Exit: Waste Disposal
  • Exit Disguise: Firefighters

Buyer: High Level (is further away, but you get more money)
First: Get into the Gruppe Sechs van and drive to the casino, to the security tunnel. You are being let in and have to drive down the tunnel, where your credentials are being checked and you are able to park the van.
Then, go down to the vault area, proceed through the manhole. To go through, you have to swipe two keycards at the (roughly) same time (time-window is roughly 4 seconds) and then just go down the winding tunnel.
Then you have a short cutscene, one knocks out the guard who opens the door and then you have to start heisting.

With 'CASINO HEIST', Matt the 'ESCAPE MATTSTER' now has an official room count of: 94!

- 10-SECOND QUICKIE VERSION -

Despite being one of the older entries in the 60Out menu, Casino Heist is still a charming good time for those who dare to gamble to become millions of dollars richer. At the peculiar crossroads where slot machines, table games, and escape room puzzles intersect, great fun ensues... just make sure to exit before the demolition dynamites explode.

- NOW... SIGNATURE DETAILED VERSION -

Did you know: 60Out at West LA is, in a way, a milestone for the escape room industry. Originally named Escape Key Room, this is the home to 2 then leadingly innovative, state-of-the-art escape games: Casino Heist, and The Mystery Of Senator Payne.

Back when almost every single bandwagon-jumping escape room business was pumping out lock, key, and combo style games, Esc Key invested in technology based puzzle input, and such investment paid off big time. Undoubtedly rare and impressive at the time, they were catapulted to the front of the industry, and in part helped reshaped the direction of the future market.

Years transpired since then, now acquired by 60Out, this branch still largely remains unchanged. In the current business trend of scraping existing rooms after just 2-3 years sometimes, it's actually pretty amazing to see these games age ever so gracefully. Though constructed circa 2016, both games benefit from having a strong foundation of solid game play. That, plus the undeniable charm of genuinely great puzzles, help Casino and Senator Payne stay relevant without necessitating any newer, flashier, or more gimmicky update.

My 'complete' review will be broken into two parts, the first chronicling a gambling adventure, and the second dedicated to a certain mysterious politician.

Casino Heist takes place entirely in the basement of the building, and therefore, I must first compliment the resourceful usage of square footage. While the venue looks small externally, every available inch of internal space was utilized to its maximal potential. Basement, game. First floor, lobby. 2nd floor, game. With this layout, they have more room than meets the eye.

Accordingly, for those pondering if Casino is a one-room game, as I did myself--a pleasant nope! You'll have much to explore as the story unfolds.

Speaking of the plot, I habitually never quite pay close attention to any intro vid, so I wasn't 100% what the tale was. I know you need to find lotsa cash, before your rival does, and also before an imminent demolition in 1 hour. The make-believe story was at most semi-logical, and not critical to game play. Casino Heist--the title is all you really need.

Production value wise, sadly, Casino took a major hit, especially by 2019 standards. This isn't a big time, Vegas caliber playground. It's more in tune with a small-scaled, local, almost mom-and-pop underground (both figuratively and literally) gambling site... if such a place exists. But hey, it's being demolished for a reason, right? Maybe it's because it's outdated! Har har. ...In short, there're plenty of improvement opportunities for sprucing up.

Fortunately, the truly enjoyable puzzles, which are the meat that audience comes for, securely reeled me back in the game's favor. The most elaborately furnished and decorated portion of the game, the very first scene, where players got to actually 'gamble' on the casino ground, was a real treat. A handful of signature, classic chance game was featured, with each playing a unique role for game advancement.

What I appreciated most was the incorporation of real, natural motion of gambling in the process of figuring out the challenge solutions. It just felt so organic and intuitive, something highly deserving of praise. The elegance and simplicity of actual inclusion of playing the table games, instead of forcing a particular puzzle onto a somewhat casino-like scenario, was what made this experience memorable, and dare I say, even superior to some newcomers' game design.

The rest of the room was decent, avoided unnecessary use of lock & key unless when narrative-driven, and turned out to be overall quite the sweet surprise, considering how long this room's debuted, and how little the latter parts' been spoiled within the escape room community.

Casino Heist is 100% doable with just 2, solo even, I think. My partner and I finished in 35 minutes with 1 hint, a sore spot in my ego due to one seemingly relevant, borderline cruel red herring. (Darn you, prop in question!) That aside, Casino Heist proved to be still a dynamite option on the 60Out roster, with puzzles straightforward enough even for beginners. Nevertheless, I, an 'expert' player, still found it very darling.
