Any tips for Googie?
Basically, any tips for long survival runs?
I managed to increase all of 4 fractions' influence, but damn gangsters is so rare and random that I can't help them rule the city!
And it seems close to impossible. If I'm rushing for fraciton's buildings — I lose, if I build up carefully and completing every Tetris figure — I lose.

Is there any specific decisions that lead to increase of crime syndicate influence? (aside from those in which it is stated so)
Is there any strategies that can help surviving longer?

Best thing I can tell you is: Get the first crime influence and more will follow. Having influence in one faction will unlock more events.

A good start is the lovers event, since it gives you a criminal influence directly. But others (data -> public access), (exhibition -> avant-garde), (squatters -> let them sort ist out themselves) have a chance to give some to.

Once you get the (bank raid -> negotiate) you simply need to hang on and let the game feed you events.

Having 2 Business Faction Choices generates the Monorail Development event, which lets you choose to smuggle for one crime.
Having 1 Public Faction Choice generates the Glass Ceiling Event, which lets you intimidate the workers for one crime.
Having 2 Public Faction Choices generates the Fixed Fight event, which lets you choose to bribe judges for one crime.
Having 3 Crime Faction choices generates the Mafia Revenge event, which lets you choose to negotiate with the mafia for one crime.
Having 4 Crime Faction choices generates the Criminal World event, which lets you choose to have them work it out themselves for one crime.

The comment above mentioned the event manipulations and requirements, i will tell the strategy to somewhat get to week 12-13. You will need to rush the green cubes as soon as they spawn and try to get (and build) the buildings that have increase in efficiencies of (in order best to worst) basic buildings>parks>the special combo structures. Try to slowly expand to the 4 head buildings, pave the undercities with highways, utilize the naturally generated buildings (and plan a bit of development) and maybe get a zoo or underground

Event with Romeo and Juliet also gives you 1 Crime although I'm not sure what summons it

Same with old all, i think the are random
Any other tips for this achievement? I'm still struggling with it. I can survive through week 11, but never get enough crime options to reach six.

Finally got it myself, did a bit of grinding to improve the basic output of the regular buildings. Overall ya, rush the buildings, get the greencubes, get yellow cubes if it doesn't mess up buildings, leave spaces for the improvement buildings, juggle with arrests/contraband, use events (where able) to reduce faction upkeep.

Personally I rush government, public, elite, then business. Always try to build the appropriate combinations for what you are getting low on. Build up in spaces on the edges if you aren't able to use them (don't waste cards), highways/double slots for paving undercities, subways I find are better than zoos even with park synergy (just from constant highway construction).

As mentioned above, pick the right outcomes for crime influence, but also just keep trying to survive as long as able

Its pretty luck based, more so than the other 6 faction achievements cause the game sometimes just decides that your city is a crime free utopia.

Anyway, another one that can give +crime is security camera's, which has a chance to give +gov or +crime

We need some crime based DLC that would add some cards and events.
