Bank Heist is an action maze game published by Fox Video Games for the Atari 2600 in 1983. You take the wheel of a getaway car in a maze-like city grid, tasked with robbing as many banks as possible while evading relentless police cruisers. As you clear out the city’s banks, the layout changes, and the police become faster and more aggressive in their pursuit.
How to Play
Navigate the city streets to run over banks and collect your loot. You must keep moving, as your car constantly consumes fuel, which can only be replenished by robbing a bank. If you are being tailed by the police, you can drop dynamite out the back of your car to destroy them. You lose a life if a police car rams you, if you crash into your own dynamite, or if you run out of gas.

Tips
- Drop dynamite just as you pass through an intersection; pursuing cops will often drive straight into the explosion before they can react.
- Don’t rob every bank immediately. Leave some untouched so you can return to them later for an emergency fuel refill.
