Unleash your strategic prowess in a city brimming with treachery as the King takes a much-needed vacation! The responsibility of protecting the realm and its riches now falls into the hands of the prince, but the brigands are lurking, eager to fill their pockets—will you side with the noble prince or try your luck as a cunning brigand?

Brigands is an exhilarating asymmetrical game of deduction and deception that pits the brave prince against a band of rival brigands. As the prince, your mission is to safeguard the kingdom’s coffers against these notorious thieves. You must hold strong: if no brigand steals a whopping 50 Ducats by the end of six tense game turns, victory is yours! However, if one bandit proves to be the richest, they reign supreme!

Each turn is filled with suspense as players secretly select one of their three crew members to deploy into various districts of the city. The choices are simultaneous and hidden—strategy is key! Once everyone is ready, it's time to reveal your decisions and position your crew. If a prince's crew crosses paths with a brigand's, those thieving scoundrels will face arrest before they can lay claim to any riches. If they go unnoticed, they can loot the district, each offering unique treasures waiting to be claimed.

But beware! An action token played in a district at the start of the turn can change everything, allowing players to steal from rivals, push opposing crew members, or make a last-minute dash to another district. Should misfortune strike and a brigand find themselves in jail, they must choose whether to await trial or hatch a daring escape!

As the prince progresses through the game, players will enhance their abilities to trap brigands better or reclaim their precious treasure more effectively. Dive into the world of Brigands and test your skills in a battle of wits and strategy!
