Escape Plan
Recover hidden cash, manage notoriety, use contacts and find a route out before the city locks down.
Move through a modular city, recover loot from businesses and safe houses, influence police movement and escape with more cash than the other thieves.
Why We Love It
The city becomes increasingly hostile as police pressure rises, so every detour for more money has to be weighed against the shrinking window to escape.
Rules overview
Players move among city locations to recover assets, recruit contacts, engage gangs and manipulate police. Notoriety affects pressure and access, while wounds and route closures make late-game movement more dangerous. Only escaped money counts fully at the end.
Key decisions
Editorial analysis: Greed is the central tension. The best route is not always the richest route if it leaves too little time or too much notoriety to reach an exit safely.
