With just a simple blink of the eye, the Thief, with the help of the Watcher, tries to steal as many Victims as he can, before he gets caught by the Cop. The players are awarded with money cards, depending on the character they have on each round. The first player, who gathers 600 pounds, will be the winner of the game.

The player, who has the Thief card, sees all players discreetly in the eyes and blinks to the one who he believes that is the Victim so that he can steal him. The Victim that has been stolen waits for a while and then he announces that the Thief stole him, reveling his Character card. The Thief continues to steal the Victims, trying to avoid the Cop. The round ends when:

 The Cop catches the Thief.

Goal of Each Character

Thief – Tries to steal all the Victims, without the Cop finding him or to accidently steal him.

Watcher – Observes all the players during the game, trying to understand who the Cop is. When the thief blinks to the Watcher, he announces to the rest who he believes that the Cop is, trying to help the Thief. If his prediction is right, he will get at the end of the round Money cards. The Watcher is not a Victim.

Cop – He has to find out who the Thief is. When he finds him, he reveals his card and announces the Thief. If he finds him, he gets rewarded with Money cards and all the Victims that have been stolen get compensated with Money cards. If he doesn’t find the Thief and catches a Victim, the Thief wins and the Victim gets compensation.

Victim – When the Thief steals a Victim he waits until the Cop catches the Thief, so he can get compensation, otherwise he won’t get any money cards. When the Cop catches the Victim, instead of the Thief, he will get compensation.
