About the game

In this game players represent both a fugitive from a German prison in WWII and a Gestapo "unit". Scope of the game is to be the first player to reach, with his/her fugitive, safety in Casablanca (starting from the prison in Germany), while trying to stop the other players' fugitives with the Gestapo unit. There are money cards (to buy weapons, ship tickets, etc.), movement cards used to move the fugitives, and event cards to add some random events that can help/hinder players in reaching their goal. This game has been published only on the Italian and Spanish markets.
