In this game, you and your friends take on the roles of petty thieves, trying to build the most valuable collection of stolen cards. The rule is simple: the more you steal, the harder it is to stop, but be careful not to overdo it and end up going home empty-handed. Each game starts with everyone receiving a 'crook' card and seven number cards, dealt face down. From there, it's a free-for-all! On your turn, you play a card into your personal collection, which is visible to everyone. Then, you can initiate a 'raid' on an opponent. You choose your victim, draw a card from their hand, and place it face up on the table. The temptation is strong: you can stop and keep the card, or risk it and draw another from the same player. But beware: if you draw two cards with the same number from the same opponent, your turn ends immediately, and the cards return to the victim's hands. And if you're lucky (or unlucky!) enough to draw a crook and decide to stop voluntarily, you can choose a card from your opponent's collection to take. Some special cards can change the game the moment they are stolen, such as allowing you to peek at an opponent's hand or place cards directly from the deck into your collection. The ultimate goal is to be the first to collect six cards of the same value. Gier is pure fun for those who enjoy taking risks and seeing luck turn in seconds. It's fast, simple, and perfect for filling that spare time with a good dose of 'greed'. ## FAQ ### How many people can play Gier? Gier is for 2 to 5 players. ### How long does a game take?
