Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

6 questions
Do I need the "The Gang" base game to play with this expansion?
Absolutely! "The Gang: More Players" is an expansion and only works in conjunction with the "The Gang" base game.
How many players does this expansion add to the game?
This expansion allows you to play "The Gang" with up to 10 players, adding more accomplices to your thief crew.
What are the "exit chips"?
The "exit chips" are a new feature that helps simplify and speed up the game when you're playing with 5 or 6 people, making the experience smoother in those scenarios.
Does the expansion significantly change the rules of the base game?
The main changes are the increased player count and the introduction of "exit chips" to optimize games with more people. The core mechanics of limited communication and predictive bidding remain.
Does the game become more complicated with more players?
Playing with more people in cooperative games can naturally increase the complexity of communication and coordination. The "exit chips" help mitigate this for groups of 5-6, but with 7-10, the dynamic will be quite different and more chaotic!
Is this expansion good for someone who has never played "The Gang" before?
No, this expansion is aimed at those who already know and enjoy the "The Gang" base game and want to play with more friends or have a slightly different experience.
