Ganoven Jagd (1983)

About this game

Ganoven Jagd ('Crook Hunt') has each player controlling 6 police officers and one robber. Your officers are trying to bring to justice the opponent's crook, whilst your fugitive is trying to elude the hunt. Although themed, this is really an abstract movement game with black and white pieces roving the squared grid.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.8/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
