How To Play

Burgle Bros is a cooperative rogue-like puzzle game with tile exploration and problem solving.

Objective

Open all safes and then escape with the loot through the Stairs on the top floor. All members of the heist team need to make it to the roof to win so avoid losing stealth tokens.

On Your Turn

Take up to 4 actions then the guard will move on your current floor. If you take 2 or fewer actions on your turn an event will be triggered. You can perform the actions in any order and you can do the same action multiple times in a turn if possible.

Actions

Peek : reveal adjacent room tile

Move : move to an adjacent room tile (does not need to be revealed to move on to it and will become revealed)

Tile specific action : Hack a computer, add a die to a Safe (uses 2 actions), roll dice on Safe tile

Character specific action

Using a tool card is a free action

How to crack a safe

Once you have located a safe tile, you need to make sure all the tiles that are in the same row and column as the safe tile are revealed. For example if the safe tile is in A1 then all the tiles in the A column and all the tiles in row 1 need to be revealed so A2, A3, A4, B1, C1, and D1. During your turn you may add die to a safe for 2 actions. The maximum amount of dice allowed to be added to a safe tile is 6. Then once all the tiles are revealed in the row and column of the safe you can roll the die or dice that are on the safe tile to attempt to "crack" the safe. The combination of the safe is the small numbers on the lower right corner of the tiles that are in the same row and column as the safe. For example if the numbers on the lower right corner of the room tiles are 1, 3, 1, 4, 6, and 3 you will need to roll the dice until you roll a 1, 3, 4, and 6. You do not need to roll a 3 multiple times to unlock all the tiles with 3 on them. Small green circle tokens will appear on room tiles that you roll the matching number. Once all the required numbers have been rolled the safe will open and give you a tool and a loot card.

Characters

All characters have a basic ability and an advanced ability, depending on the table settings you may get to chose which ability your character will have for the game.

The Acrobat

Basic ability: You may move into a tile with a guard as a free action and will not lose a stealth token if you leave the tile before the guard moves (meaning you leave the tile with the guard before ending your turn in order to not lose stealth).

Advanced ability: If you are on a perimeter tile you may spend 3 actions to move up or down one floor to the corresponding tile, doing so immediately ends your turn. You can do one action before using the character action to utilize all four actions.

The Hacker

Basic ability: You do not trigger fingerprint, laser, or motion tiles and other players will not trigger those tiles if you are there. The ability is not optional. If you end on a thermo tile you will trigger an alarm and if you have an item you will trigger a detector tile so be aware this ability is specific to fingerprint, laser, and motion tiles only.

Advanced ability: You can add a hack token to yourself as an action. You can only store up to one hack token on yourself that you or any player may use when needed. This token can be used to hack fingerprint, laser, or motion tiles if a computer room does not have hack tokens available. If you hack yourself, then enter a tile that requires a hack token and use your hack token, you can hack yourself again if you have available actions.

The Hawk

Basic ability: As as a free action, once per turn, you can peek through an adjacent wall to reveal a tile.

Advanced ability: As a free action, once per turn, you may peek at a tile up to two spaces away. You cannot skip over unrevealed tiles and you cannot see through walls but you can use the ability to peek around corners and peek up stairs.
