Robbing You Blind

🎲

The setup. You and your crew planned the perfect bank heist — then the lights went out. An undercover cop sits among you. Everyone secretly gets a role: Robbers must grab the gold and escape the vault; the cop must quietly sabotage the heist.

One robber, one vault. The whole table controls a single robber figurine with movement cards. The vault has three sub-vaults separated by doors. A door can only be crossed straight through, and it slams shut behind you — there's no going back. You cannot pass through walls (the glowing brick lines) or leave the board, except through the blown-out wall once you have the gold. An impossible move is simply ignored.

Each round has 8 steps:

Leader selection — the torch passes clockwise each round.
Planning — talk it out! The leader has one minute, or the team may demand a forfeit.
Moneyman — once the gold is held, the leader picks who carries it. The carrier discards instead of playing a card this round.
Veto (optional) — once per game, any player may end the round immediately.
Replace a card — everyone discards one card and draws a new one. From here on: silence!
Roll the die — 3 faces keep hands, the rest pass entire hands around the table!
Action — everyone secretly plays one card face down (leader first, clockwise).
Heist — cards flip in order and the robber moves. Hands are not refilled, so the crew slowly runs out of cards…

The gold & the clock. Touch the gold square and the alarm trips — the crew has 15 minutes to escape through the blown-out wall. Robbers win on escape; the cop wins if the crew runs out of cards or time.
