Thief: A High-Speed Card Chase

Description

In Thief, you will take on the role of either crafty Robbers attempting a daring heist or valiant Cops trying to thwart their plans. Each team uses their cards to steal/return Treasures while moving their car along the road to the crime scene. In this tactical game, you need to keep a close eye on your opponents to make sure the game ends with you in first place. Use your cards to steal (if you are Robbers)/return (Cops) or move your car along the board. The goal is to hold more treasure when the first player crosses the finish line. Be strategic with your choices and work with your team to beat your opponents. How to play: Choose your side – Play as either the COPS or ROBBERS. Your goal is the same: have more treasure than the other guys. Timing is everything – Get your team's car to arrive just in time so that your team has the most treasure...because the other team is already on their way. Let the race begin – The ROBBERS try to collect as much treasure as possible before their getaway car arrives. The COPS try to grab as much treasure as possible while waiting on backup to arrive. —description from the publisher
