About this game
One player plays Kommissaris Speurneus/Inspector Higgins with the goal of capturing the thief carrying the treasure and as many other thieves as possible. The remaining players play cooperatively, in turn moving any of the five thief figures as they choose. The thieves' goal is to discover which of the nine houses on the game board contains the treasure and return the treasure to the thieves' hideout. Movement is based on die rolls, with the number and type of dice rolled changing depending on the total number of players in the game.
