Forget boring math, here we learn by adding and stealing! The goal is simple: collect the most money. To start, each player creates piles of two cards that add up to exactly $100. Once these starting piles are made, the treasure hunt (or rather, money hunt!) begins. Want to steal a pile? Just place a money card on top, as long as the top two cards sum to $100. Stolen pile, it's yours! And the best part: these piles can be stolen over and over again, making everything even more dynamic. But beware, thieves! There are Thief cards that can steal money piles, and Jail cards that are even more powerful, capable of stealing piles that already contain a Thief. It's a festival of card 'tag-you're-it'! When the deck runs out, whoever has the most money in hand is the grand champion. Clumsy Thief is perfect for those looking for a quick, fun game that also helps practice math in a light and relaxed way. Ideal for families and groups of friends who enjoy a fierce competition with a touch of luck and lots of laughter. ## FAQ ### How many players can participate?
