About the game

Hunt down London's wealthy people with your gang of street children, but don't be greedy! In Kids of London, you have nine children numbered "0" to "8". When a victim appears, each player selects which child will try to rob him. Both the children with the highest value and the ones with the lowest value will be able to get some money. The other children will get nothing. However, if multiple "8" (the gang leaders) get played at the same time, the police comes and prevent them from getting any money! After nine robberies, the player with the most money gets robbed and loses everything. The second player with most money wins the game.
