About the game

What is Thief's Market?

You are all thieves! Each round in Thief's Market you roll the loot dice and split them up, then use your earnings to buy devious plans, henchmen, and finery in order to become the most notorious thief of all! When the display of available cards to purchase can't be refilled, the game ends. Players with the most henchmen and gold score bonus points, then the player with the most notoriety in cards, tokens, and bonuses wins!
