About this game
London, 19th century: You are part of a band of street kids in the pay of this old knave known as Fagin. He gives you a little money in exchange for the fruit of your larcenies committed in the streets of London! During the two rounds of the game, day and night, you want to steal as many items as possible in order to resell them to Fagin while avoiding getting yourself noticed by the police. Only the richest child at the end of the game (do not exaggerate) can hope to regain their freedom! Oliver Twist is the second volume in PBC's "Classics Series" after Around the World in 80 Days. —description from the publisher
Does it fit your group?
- Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
- Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
- Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
