About the Game

Time travel in the proper paws is profitable! You are a felonious feline who can traverse the space-time continuum. You will steal valuable art, religious, and science artifacts from famous locations and characters of the past, present, and future. However, if you leave too many paw prints behind when you pilfer, then the time patrol will imprison you. Anything and everything is yours for the taking! But only the most cunning cat can avoid getting caught, claim victory, and become the wealthiest of all time.

Purloin is a hand management heist game. As a time-traveling cat burglar, you will purloin valuables from the past, present, and future. The player(s) with the most paws is caught by the Time Patrol dogs and cannot gain Endgame bonuses. Then after bonuses, the player with the most wealth wins!
