Overview

What ABG knows about this game

Larceny is a heist-themed party game for 3+ players. Gather your crew, pick the Score and plan your heist! Each round one player is the Chief, everyone else is the Crew. The Chief draws a Score from the deck. This card is what the Crew is stealing during the heist. The Chief then draws two Catches, which are problems that crop up during the heist. The Crew now has to play Fix cards from their hand to try to over come the Catches. Once everyone has played a Fix on each Catch, the Chief decides which Fix is the best, and points are awarded. Next round someone else is the Chief, and play continues. Larceny has numerous variant gameplay modes. Most notable are the versus Troubleshooters mode, the cooperative Heist mode, the strategic planning Black Bag mode, and the narrative Best Laid Plan mode.
