The lighting is dim, the bartender is giving the counter one last wipe as he suspiciously eyes your table. You give him a glance to let him know that you aren’t planning on leaving any time soon. The people you are with represent the best of the criminal underground - thieves, bandits and burglars who have seen and done it all. --- Rogues to Riches is a game of hilarious creativity and problem solving. You must create your own plan to get through the Traps in each Lair and steal the Riches. You have four Gear cards and you can use them in any way you want - there is no right or wrong answer. Describe your plan to the other players and they will give you thumbs up if they like it or thumbs down if they don't. The Fate Roll determines if you succeed or not. Roll two dice, add the thumbs up you get and subtract the thumbs down you get, and if the result is a 9 or higher your plan works. If you want to steal the Riches you need a funny, clever, and convincing plan!
