Picture this: you and your crew just pulled off the heist of the century, the cash is stashed, and the rest is invested across the city. Life's good, until... the police catch a break! Accusations fly, fingers are pointed, and SWAT teams are already closing off the city's exits. In 'Escape Plan', your only option is to flee before everything is locked down, but not without recovering as much money as possible and, of course, throwing your former partners under the bus. Inspired by classic heist films, this game puts you in the shoes of a cunning thief, with a twist: you can also influence the cops' moves each turn. The modular board ensures every escape is a fresh adventure, and you'll need to play cards to aid your own getaway and hinder others. Hire local gangs for diversions, bribe the police (if you can afford it!), or use disguises. But be warned, your ex-colleagues are thinking the exact same thing! With asymmetric roles and individual missions, the competition is fierce. In the end, only one thief will escape with the most cash and claim victory. Do you have the perfect escape plan?
