The First Heist is my entry to BGG’s 2026 54-Card Game Design Contest.
The game is in early draft stage. There are first drafts of rules and components available.
The game is for 2-4 players aged 10 years and older.
Master of Thievery – The First heist?
The First Heist is the second game in Master of Thievery series. The original Master of Thievery roll’n write game was designed in BGG’s 2025 roll and write design contest. The First Heist continues the story where the original Roll and write game ended.
In the Master of Thievery – The First Heist you and your collegues are just graduated from the University of Thieves. With your master’s diploma in your hand you are eager to make your first real heist. Select the targets, scout the properties, pick the locks and grab the loot without leaving finger prints.
Successfull heist requires working together with the team. Just remember that there is no honour among the thieves. Everyone grabs what they can and if your “friend” has better looking loot you can always try to pickpocket them.
