You play as Chris Knox, the leader of a crew of former special ops personnel and highly-skilled hustlers. His sister has been kidnapped and the only way to get her back is to help her kidnappers with some dirty deeds. You'll need to lead Chris to his objectives while avoiding the cops at any cost. Get caught and it's off to the slammer with you! You'll have help along the way to aid you when the tough gets going. Escape the cops and complete all the missions, but most importantly, save your sister!

Game Tips:

Since there is no trophy for accumulating money in this game, you are free to spend whatever you earn while playing the game but keep in mind you can only earn money for each Diamond once so once you’ve earned it, that's it. No more.
It is recommended that you keep a handful (5-ish) of each Perk on hand (they can be bought from the store on the level select screen). This way you can breeze easier through the levels and don’t have to avoid the cops as much, just restock whatever you use.
The levels are all super, super short so don’t dread too much on having to replay a level should you miss any of the diamonds. Also remember that once you've earned a Diamond, you have that Diamond forever and do not need to "re-earn" it should you need to replay any level.

Step 1: Play through the game.

Play through all 62 levels through the 6 stages. Try and get as many Diamonds as you can, but don’t sweat it if you miss any as you can go back. After this step, you will have earned:

The Last Heist
Brooklyn in the Bag
Bought Out Bronx
Captured Queen
Off the Island
Big Bite of the Apple
Knox's Training Day
Smash and Grab

Step 2: Goal specific trophies.

If you haven’t already earned them, go back and get the goal specific trophies. These are not too hard and will most likely pop as you play through the game. See individual trophies for more info. After this step, you will have earned:

Just Missed Me
Fog of War
Master Hacker
Pop a Wheelie
Fast and Furious

Step 3: 3 Diamonds on every level

Go back and get 3 Diamonds on any level you may have missed. Goods news! Unlike similar games, if you earn a Diamond, you have that Diamond forever. If you replay the level, you will still have it and will only need to go for the Diamonds you have not already earned. The later levels will most likely require two playthroughs to get both the Danger Diamond and the Level Speed Diamond. Once you have all three 3 Diamonds for all 62 levels, you will earn the only in the game:

Diamonds Are Forever

[PST Would Like to Thank Velvet for this Roadmap]

Diamonds Are Forever

Earn three diamonds on all jobs.
This is not going to be as bad as it sounds (or as difficult as similar games). Once you have earned a Diamond, you have it forever because they do not disappear or need to be re-earned should you have to replay any level. You don’t have to get all three in one go. The three Diamonds are earned by completing the level, beating the goal time and collecting the Danger Diamond. Once you have earned three Diamonds on all the levels, the trophy will pop. See the individual stage trophies (Brooklyn In The Bag, Bought Out Bronx, Captured Queen, Off the Island and Big Bite of the Apple) for more tips.
The Last Heist

Complete the last known job in NYC.
This is not one specific final job but rather just the final 62nd level/job that you complete. Upper Manhattan is the last stage to open up so you will most likely earn this trophy there. Once you finish your last level, this trophy will pop.
Just Missed Me

Barely evade 30 cops.
When you get with range of the cops, everything will slow down and the screen will blink white on the sides (red if you're too close). Don't get caught when this happens to evade the cops. Do this 30 times and the trophy will pop. This will most likely pop for you as you're going through the game but if you want to grind it out, Brooklyn - Level Keep It Quick will work. You can just hit repeat at the end of the level to do it again – the game saves after everything you do so no need to exit back to level select.
Smash And Grab

Complete a job by triggering an alarm without getting caught.
You can easily do this in the Bronx - Level Secured Transaction as you will need to do this anyway to complete the level. Choose the shortest path to your Home from the Bank (don't go down to the red alarm building - drive past it). The cop car will come close, but it should not catch you. Once you have finished, the trophy will pop.
Brooklyn In The Bag

Complete every job in Brooklyn
Brooklyn is the first stage of the game and consists of 13 levels. There are 10 base levels and 3 branch levels for Level 10. Once you have completed all 13, the trophy will pop. You do not need all 3 Diamonds for this trophy but will eventually need them for Diamonds are Forever. You will open up the Speed Safecracker ($2000 in the store), Facial ID ($2500) and the Sneak/Sprint (2500) Perks on this stage. Keep a good stock of these as all three come in very handy while playing through the game.
Bought Out Bronx

Complete every job in Bronx.
(The) Bronx is the second stage of the game and consists of 11 levels. There are 8 base levels and 3 branch levels for Level 8. Once you have completed all 11, the trophy will pop. You do not need all 3 Diamonds for this trophy but will eventually need them for Diamonds are Forever. You will be joined by Ace the Hacker on this stage and will unlock his perks as well. He will be a big help in the later levels so be sure to keep some stock of his perks on hand!
Captured Queen

Complete every job in Queens.
Queens is the third stage of the game and consists of 11 levels. There are 8 base levels and 3 branch levels for Level 8. Once you have completed the final 11th level, the trophy will pop. You do not need all 3 Diamonds for this trophy, but will eventually need them for Diamonds are Forever. You will be joined by Fish in this stage and will unlock all his perks as well. He will aid in blowing up walls and dropping smoke grenades on cops. If you're having trouble getting the goal time on any level, try seeing if he can knock down any walls for you.
Off The Island

Complete every job in Staten Island.
Staten Island is the fourth stage of the game and consists of 11 levels. There are 7 base levels and 4 branch levels for Level 7. Once you have completed the final 11th level, the trophy will pop. You do not need all 3 Diamonds for this trophy but will eventually need them for Diamonds are Forever. You don't unlock any new perks are join any friends in this stage but you can use any already open friends/perks by hiring or buying them (respectively).
Big Bite of the Apple

Complete every job in Lower Manhattan.
Lower Manhattan is the Fifth stage of the game. It consists of 8 base levels with no branching. Once you have completed the 8th level, the trophy will pop. You do not need all 3 Stars for this trophy, but will eventually need them for Diamonds are Forever. You will be joined by Dali in this stage. She will aid you with Turbo and Caltrops (Tire Spikes). She can be used by any of your group that hits her first whether it be you or one of your already opened friends.
Fog Of War

Disable 10 cops using Fish's Tactical Smoke Grenade.
ou will first unlock Fish's Smoke Grenade in the Queens stage - Level Old Tricks and can be bought in the store afterwards for $2500. The smoke grenades stall cops when they get too close. This will most likely pop as you play through the game but you can easily grind it out on the Old Tricks level of Queens. Just get close to the cops, release the grenade, finish the level and rinse & repeat. Once you've stalled your 10th cop, this trophy will pop.
Master Hacker

Hack 10 alarms using Ace's Alarm Jammer.
You first unlock Ace's Alarm Jammer in level 1 of the Bronx stage. You can buy them in the store afterwards for $2,500. You’ll need Ace to disarm alarms so you can escape the cops. If you want to grind it out, then replay Bronx - Level Chicken Dinner 10 times (you need him to disable the alarm to complete the level).
Pop A Wheelie

Disable 10 cops using Dali's Tire Spikes.
You will open Dali’s perks in the Lower Manhattan stage. It won’t let you know, but the Tire Spikes (Caltrops) open up after the first stage (with the Turbo boosts). You can buy these from the Store for ($2,500). Disable 10 cops to earn this trophy. This might pop while you play through the game but if it doesn’t, a good level to grind this on is Lower Manhattan stage level Riding Shotgun. Collect Dali's icon with Ace to be able to use her perks and through the cops on driving up and down. When prompted, use the Caltrop perk to stall the cop. You may need to buy more from the store in the Level Briefing menu.
Fast And Furious

Complete a job in half the time limit.
You can do this in the Bronx stage on the Stumbling Rocks level. You will have :30 seconds but will be able to do it in about 12. Skip the Diamond and go straight for the bank and then home. Use the sneak/sprint perk to dash through the level and use the Speed Safecracker perk to quickly rob the bank.
Knox's Training Day

Complete every training job for Knox.
The Training Jobs are the first 10 base levels of the Brooklyn stage. Once you have finished level 10, the trophy will pop.
