g
a haul as possible b
y
crackin
g
the vaults. But
watch out! Don’t for

y
our loot.
T

Preparation of the Game
Each player takes a loot bag. Place the

ff
le all the loot cards and place –as shown below- one loot card,
f
ace-up underneath each vault card. These cards represent the loot in the cor
-
responding vaults. With each picklock guess the loot changes (=number of loot
c
ards) and
g
ets bi
gg
er or smaller. Durin
g
the
g
ame as each picklock pla
y
er
g
uesses, the loot (= number of loot cards) alwa

Place the remainin
g
cards in a provision pile face-down next to the other cards.

I
n order to crack a vault
y
ou have to
g
uess whether the number on the loot
c
ard that
y
ou are
g
oin
g
to turn over from the provision pile will be smaller
o

g
her than the number of loot cards next to the vault
y
ou are crackin
g
.
I
ndicate the vault and say “lower” or “higher”. Draw the loot card
f
rom
t
he top o
f
the provision pile and turn it over
.
Game set up
Y
our guess was rig
h
t?
Y
es
Great! As a reward you get all the loot cards next to the vault in question and
place them face-up in front of you. Then place the loot card you turned over on
the free space of the vault
y
ou
j
ust emptied.
N
o
Crooks’ bad luck! Place the loot card on to
p
of the loot card(s) of the vault in
q
uest
i
on.
But watch out:
Any loot cards you might have collected in previous rounds but that you have not
y
et safe
g
uarded, are now lost! You have to place them face-down underneath the
provision pile. How to safe-
g
uard
y
our loot, is explained further below.

Example:
T
he loot cards are numbered 1 to 52.
Phillip rolls Red. The loot card correspondin
g
to the red vault shows the number 10.
N
ext to it, correspondin
g
to the
y
ellow vault, there is the loot card showin
g
number 11.
S
o he has to
g
uess if the number of the next card of the provision pile will be between
1
an
d
9 or 12 an
d
52. He guesses “
h
ig
h
er”. T
h
en
h
e turns roun
d
over t
h
e
l
oot car
d
on
t
op of the provision pile.
The card shows the number 38. So he has
g
uessed ri
g
ht and
g
ets all the cards next
t
o the red vault. The loot card he
j
ust turned around is placed on the empt
