Basic principle: we are all thieves. That being said, here we are at the end of a robbery, with our loot under our arm and that’s where the trouble begins, finally the game begins. The one who tells us the rest is Damien Guillot at the Chamois Ludik in Niort, in his games bar he knows many fans: the game is simple and allows a number of unexpected game phases.
During the game, everyone will try to steal the loot of others! Loot consisting of paintings, sculptures, antiques… These objects are signified through cards and tokens with a value of 1 to 5.
How to get your hands on the loot of other thieves?
When we play a card with a number, we get a corresponding token in the center of the table but if there is no corresponding token and this is where the tension rises: we will use other people’s tokens thieves.
Some tokens have white dots: these are alibis and it is better not to be the one who will have the least at the end of the game, because there will be a penalty.
In the kingdom of thieves, all shots are allowed, the game will therefore be accompanied by comments, joys, disappointments. Art Robbery is played in four rounds.
Number of players: 2 to 4, price around 19 euros.
And don’t forget the Melting Potes evenings on Wednesdays at the Chamois Ludik in Niort, ideal for newcomers and single people who want to meet other players and possibly steal their loot.
Thanks to Damien Guillot.
