However, something went wrong, and you lost all your bags in different parts of the city.
Now you have to collect them again and to deliver them safely to the banks.
But you also have to do it quickly, for thieves and robbers will use any opportunity to take the money in their possession - and that's why the game has a time limit.
Different levels of the game represent different city districts.
You have to "push" the bags in order to get them closer to a bank, but if you push them too far away, there's no way of recovering them again.
Agility isn't very important here, it's the strategy that matters! The game is text-only, using the ASCII characters.
Dollar-signs are used to represent the money bags.
About Atari 2600
The Atari 2600 (1977) was the console that first proved interchangeable game cartridges could sustain a mass-market business, effectively founding the home console industry as we know it. Most common 2600 titles are inexpensive today given how many units and copies were sold, but a small number of extremely rare releases — including several from Atari's own late-era prototype and licensed titles — are among the most valuable cartridges in retro collecting.
Gamevaro tracks Bank Heist for Atari 2600 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Bank Heist to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This A2600 release dates back to 1983.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Bank Heist, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Atari 2600 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
