Description

Welcome to the world of Thieves Kingdom, where aspiring thieves from across the city gather to compete in the annual Tournament of Thieves. This quick paced card game blends cunning strategy, chance encounters, and a visually enchanting world. Players must outwit and outmanoeuvre their opponents to collect the most impressive treasures and earn the privilege of joining the prestigious Guild of Thieves. Thieves Kingdom combines strategy, chance and deception as players draw cards from the deck or even snatch them from their opponents' hands, seeking the perfect balance of treasures and action cards to propel them to victory. With a diverse array of fantasy themes, including pirates, goblins, elves and dwarves, players will experience an enchanting world where diverse characters and fantastical creatures take centre stage. Players take turns drawing cards and playing treasures or actions, with the goal of accumulating five treasures and the highest score in victory points. Treasure cards are played face down, with some containing hidden traps to challenge opponents. Action cards allow players to execute strategic moves that can impact the game's outcome, adding unexpected twists and turns. The game ends when a player starts their turn with five treasures in play. At that point, victory points are tallied, and the player with the most points is declared the winner. With bonus points awarded for collecting multiple treasures of the same suit or even five trap cards, Thieves Kingdom offers endless strategic possibilities for players seeking to claim the top spot among the city's elite thieves. -description from designer
