About the game

What you do in a play session

The Burgle Bros crew is back, and this time their target is a casino! Forget the office job, because the new mission is to infiltrate a bustling casino during the day. Get ready for bigger challenges: tougher safes, reinforced security, and the need to blend in with the crowd. What's changed? For starters, we have the Gear Kit: each thief now carries unique equipment that can be used at any time, by any player, opening doors for masterful plays and spectacular saves – but remember, the gear needs to be prepped first. The board has also come alive with brand-new casino rooms, like the Surveillance room with its security tapes, the Table Games area to test your luck, and the Pool/Lounge with its unexpected events. Speaking of security, Bouncers are the new guards, more agile and dangerous, especially if their patrol deck runs out – then they'll hunt down the nearest player! To complete the disguise and the tension, we have Chips scattered throughout the casino: some give you valuable information (the Mole), others hide you (the Crowd), but watch out for the Saleswoman who can trap you with her chatter! And when the safe finally opens, the Finales bring game-changing twists, essential for escaping with the loot. For those who want more, the Campaign Mode allows playing the Finales in sequence, with rewards and a system that adjusts the difficulty based on your wins and losses. It's a tense and surprise-filled cooperative experience, ideal for those who enjoy planning and a bit of controlled chaos.
