📖 About This Game
Thick as thieves they say but what happens when informants infiltrate your thieves' guild? What happens when they are your friends?
Informants is a strategic game made for 2 to 6 players. Compete with and against other players in an effort to collect all of the items you have been tasked to collect. Trade, steal and bluff your way to completing your mission but be careful helping out the wrong team could lose you the game. All you can trust is their word.
Players take the role of either a thief or an informant and are tasked with recovering a number of items.
Each turn you must decide between collecting tools to aid in your mission, trading with another player or attempt a robbery. The round ends when one player collects all of the items they have been tasked with collecting. Players are then rewarded with money for every item they have collected and the winning team is awarded bonus cash for completing their mission. The game ends after all rounds have been played and the player with the most money wins.
