Tim Fowers Burgle Bros.

This game absolutely rocks. The artistry is superb. The pieces are well made. The replay ability is infinite.What I love most about this game is you can play with 1-4 people... that’s right, you can play by yourself. I usually pick 4 of the 9 characters to make it more of a challenge. They each have a different skill, 1 normal and 1 advanced and you can pick whichever one you want to play with.You can set up your tiles with 2-3 floors and set up your walls however you want. Depending on your setup, you can make it for beginners or hardcore veterans. The game has a base set of rules but you can deviate to make it easier or more challenging.I highly recommend this game as I have been having a blast. Best game out there.

This is a great game for 2 to 3 people - at 4 it gets exponentially harder to win. You all play burglars who are casing out a place and breaking into safes to steal treasures. Apparently, you haven't cased out the joint ahead of time because you have to expose the floor tiles one at a time, risking setting off alarms. You also have to climb to the top of the 3 story building to escape. After each turn, the cop on your floor advances at different speeds - two spaces for the first floor, three for the second floor, and four for the third floor. Once you crack open the safe, they all speed up. At two players it's very do-able; at three, a little harder; at four, winning is nearly impossible.The only reason why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars for presentation is because the box JUST BARELY fits all of the pieces, and you have to put them all back in a particular way in order for everything to fit and the box to shut.

We bought this as a Fathers Day gift for my husband. We have played a lot of table top games as a family. Burgle Bros was clever and engaging for all of us. Our 18 year old is a strategy enthusiast and our 8 year old has a pretty short attention span, so it's hard to find a game we all can stick with. We played an adapted round the first time with 2 floors instead of 3, and we are looking forward to trying all 3 floors next time. The guide says up to 4 players so our 8 year old and I shared one role since there were 5 of us. The box seemed a bit small for such a high price, but the artwork and design are attractive, reminding me of old Pink Panther cartoons. i think we will get our money's worth in family time.

First impressions were strong. The art gives off a pitch-perfect mid-century, Jetsonian vibe, and the build quality of components is clean and solid.Gameplay systems are grounded and approachable, but with enough complexity and smart randomization that the systems all interlock in interesting and dynamic ways. Games can play out wildly differently given the vast array of possible board layouts, which gives the game more replayability.Above all: it’s just fun! If you like Pandemic this is about equally (if not slightly more?) complex, but faster. Everything is compact and nerve-racking, as you try and slip around guards, rely on character-specific abilities, and get that sweet, sweet loot. Speaking of loot: one of my favorite design bits is that the loot can give you a small hindrance to movement or may change the way your character interacts with each room—in the normal set-up there are three pieces of loot needed to win, and this serves as a perfect escalation of stakes, and feels logical and realistic.Can’t really recommend this enough! Thanks Tim Fowers!

It's a cool game. Just be aware that the box is MUCH smaller than it seems from photos. While it's a few inches wide, it's smaller than many regular hardback books (and I'm not talking about coffee table books, just regular hardback books).

Great game play. Similar to Pandemic, this is a cooperative game where players work together towards a common objective. Fun for the whole family - except for those who cannot do anything without checking their phones every two minutes. . .

Great little co op game! Easy to travel with, too. Lots of challenge, but not overly complicated. Each persons character has different abilities so it keeps everyone engaged.

Really fun game. It takes quite awhile to setup and tear down and some great care has to be taken not to lose any of the little pieces. It is also all cardboard so any liquid around the game or on the table is bad news.Very fun though if you have the patience for setup/tear down and can protect the pieces.
