About Pie Heist
Pie Heist is a cartoon physics contraption puzzle set on a tiny tabletop theatre stage. Grandma Mabel's prize-winning apple pie is cooling on the windowsill, and Bandit, a very fast raccoon with a too-small sack, is coming for it. Before each heist you watch his ghost run, then drag a few gadgets from the tray onto glowing snap points: spring boards, fans, boxing gloves, bowling balls, toy cars, seesaws, dominoes, donuts, magnets, laser pointers, laundry baskets, butterfly nets, bubble machines and glue pads. Press GO and the deterministic physics plays out exactly the same way every time, so you can tweak one gadget and try again. Catch Bandit in a trap for the first star, keep the pie off the floor (and away from Pudding the basset hound) for the second, and beat the level challenge for the third. Sixty levels run across Grandma's backyard, a kitchen full of appliances that need power, a Halloween night where you can only build in the light and windy rooftops at dusk. Each chapter ends with a boss where Bandit remembers the trap that caught him, and every failed heist adds a funny blooper to the album.
Grandma's prize apple pie is on the windowsill and Bandit the raccoon is coming: place spring boards, fans, bowling balls and laundry baskets, press GO and watch the chain reaction catch him (or hilariously fail).

💡 Tips & tricks
- Bandit hops over traps he can see: launch him, knock him or lure him into them instead.
- A donut, a magnet, a laser dot or a candy bowl changes his route.
- In the kitchen, electric gadgets only work near an outlet or after a switch is pressed.
- On Halloween night you can only build where it is lit; a flashlight lights up more.
- Rooftop wind pushes anything light, including a flying raccoon.

Pie Heist FAQ
Is Pie Heist hard?
The first levels need a single gadget. Later levels ask for chains of two or three, and every level has a known solution; a rewarded hint can show one gadget's spot.
Why did the same layout behave differently?
It won't: the physics runs on a fixed step, so the same layout always gives the same result. Move or rotate a gadget to change the outcome.
What is the daily heist?
A remix of a solved level that is the same for everyone that day. Try to catch Bandit with as few gadgets as possible.
Can I play without ads?
Yes. Ads are optional rewards (a hint or double coins) and an occasional break when you press Next, never while you build or watch a run.
