Oliver Twist*

Oliver Twist is a family game for two to four players where you play street kids on the prowl in 19th-century London.
What's it about?
You belong to Fagin's band of young thieves. For stolen goods he hands you a few coins. So you steal as much as you can without drawing the eye of the police. Only the richest child at the end wins back their freedom.

The game runs over two rounds, day and night. You roam the streets and gather loot.
- Steal items in the streets.

In the end, only the player with the most money matters.
