Raubbau (German for overexploitation) is thematically a dungeon crawler, mechanically it is a deduction and bluffing game, which provides significantly more depth than Skull or Liar's Dice / Perudo. Special attention was paid to easy rules and intensive player interaction.

In Raubbau, each player only knows the treasures in his part of the ever-growing mine. If the treasures do not seem sufficiently precious, one can try to get an unknown treasure of another player by skillful deduction. The other players have the chance to react - but they are not forced to. If the other players react, one has to tax their reaction: Are they trying to trick you into awakening the dragon or is there a treasure hidden underneath their tile? A suspenseful atmosphere evolves while players try to trick each other.

Everybody wants to leave the mine, but nobody dares to, because another player might have more treasures. The player who assesses the other players and the situation in the mine best, will win the game.
