About the Game

Have you always dreamt of being one of the thieves in Ocean's Eleven? Or perhaps with participating in the Sting? Would you like to be a cat burglar and live la dolce vitta? Then Theft of the Century is the game for you!

Your mission in Theft of the Century will be to escape the police hunting you at every turn. The police will be faster or slower depending on the cards played by your opponents. With a hand management system where you can draw or play cards to make your thief run faster, that make the police quicker when chasing your rivals, and that will combine with each other to earn you points. Play hidden cards to solve at the end of each round, trump your opponent’s strategies and get the most valuable booty!

The game is played in a variable number of rounds, with an objective card that marks the end of the game. Players will use their cards and solve their effects, up to a maximum of 4 cards each round per player. The player who achieves more objectives will be the winner of the game. Will you be the thief who performs the Theft of the Century?
