Indie Boards & Cards Grifters Nexus Games

Excellent expansion to an excellent game. Highly recommend this to all tabletop gamers. Games like this are important to my vast collection because it’s simple enough to teach gamers of all levels. It’s esthetically pleasing & diverse enough to keep the attention of a seasoned tabletop gamer. Looking forward to trying other games from this company.

This a great add on to the original or even a stand alone if you have never played grifters (the original)

I liked the first game, it was at times a little unbalanced with just 2 people. They changed a few things with this game, I'm not 100% sure I like the changes, but I enjoy the game and it's worth thr money. I need to play a few more times to get used to it I think.

When I received this game, one of the cards (1 Blue 'Ringleader') was missing. I contacted the seller by email, but so far have not received a response. The game can't be played with more than 3 players without this card. I contacted the game's company (Indie) and they provided a replacement card. Very pleased, as this is a really good game.

I bought this game for the theme only to be left disappointed. I think it is supposed to be a Netrunner knock off, but this game is really not that good. Effectively you set a tablou of cards on the table, much like 7 Wonders, where some are face down or face up and overlap. These cards are your Capers that you try and pull of in the game, so some are available while other are not until later. The Capers are you main objective. Your also supposed to use a hand of cards, which are your characters, that give you certain abilities that help manipulate your turn. Also these characters are used to pull of the Capers and try to stifle your opponents turn with there abilities. The problem is that Capers and characters are both so bland and do nothing for the mechanic of the game or the theme, leaving the game feeling very dull. So the game itself has no worthwhile content. The characters abilities are very unbalanced, and feel as if they are an afterthought and pasted on the cards. Half of them do very little for your turn really. They did not put enough thought into this game at all unfortunately which is a shame because the theme seemed so interesting.
