Swindler

 

We are swindlers and defraud “rich moneybags” in Victorian London. You select a character and facultatively a special ability for a more challenging game. If you are active, you have a turn comprising five steps: 1. Reserve order, 2. Steal from Moneybag, 3. Actions - complete task or sell booty to dealer, 4. Replenish dealer tiles and order cards, and 5. Hire accomplice; steps 1, 3 and 5 are facultative. To steal, you select a bag and draw any number of booty tokens. If you draw a skull, you lose all tokens of the skull’s background color that you own. If you stop facultatively, you keep the booty drawn. Dealer tiles that are completed in step 4 give the booty tokens on them back to the bags; completed orders give you coins, victory points or “wanted” posters. If a police raid is drawn during replenishing, it is immediately resolved. If someone has completed the necessary amount of orders, you score victory points for coins and lose victory points for reserved orders and win with most points.
