Swindler

Steal from London's richest moneybags! Use the loot to fulfil orders or sell it to the dealers to get victory points and other bonuses. But don't get too greedy! You might end up getting caught or have the other Swindlers sending the accomplices to slow you down. You need some luck and thick skin to rise to the occasion!

Swindler combines press-your-luck with take-that mechanisms for a fun and thematic game set in Victorian London. Each round, players must steal from one of the five moneybags, drawing tokens from the chosen bag. Each bag is filled with coins, jewellery, and other loot — but each bag also contains at least one skull! If you draw a skull, you've pressed your luck too far and got caught in the act. Not only will you lose the loot you stole that round, you also lose everything you stole from the same bag in previous rounds. The moneybag not only found your hand in their pocket, but they also recognized the small but precious ring on your finger...

Game time: 45 - 60 minutes
Recommended for 2 - 4 swindlers, aged 10+
