Fagin's Gang - a British-themed game from a UK company.
Introduction
You are a member of Fagin's infamous gang of pilfering street urchins from Oliver Twist. Fagin is ill and needs a fence - someone to turn stolen goods into shillings. He trusts you and so has given you charge of a small band of 5 urchins to scour London for easy pickings. Each of your urchins takes one of 6 locations from Charles Dickens' London (Bow Street, River Thames, St Paul's Cathedral, The Strand, Chertsey and Holborn Hill). Your urchins try to avoid the police constables and steal goods (fruit, books, jewellery, silverware, pocket watches and silk handkerchiefs) to help the other members of the gang. Everyone meets at Smithfield Market to trade, to swap booty and experiences - and to make more shillings. Stealing goods is essential, but ultimately these have to be converted into shillings to win the game.
Object
The aim of Fagin's Gang is to gather enough commodities to gain enough money to return safely to Fagin. The first player to do this is the winner!
