Caper Europe, war relativ zügig nach dem Erscheinen wieder ausverkauft.
Nach einigen Monaten des Wartens, ist es nun aber wieder lieferbar.

In Caper Europe versuchen 2 Diebesbanden an 3 Orten einzubrechen und die meisten Siegpunkte zu erringen.
Dazu werden jede Runde Diebe oder Ausrüstung gedraftet.
Man darf also eine Karte an einen der 3 Orte anlegen und gibt die restlichen Karten an den Gegner weiter.
Die Diebe bringen verschiedene Effekte mit sich, dagegen kann man mit der Ausrüstung die Effekte der Diebe nutzen.
Nach 6 Runden (3x Diebe, 3X Ausrüstung) gewinnt der Spieler mit den meisten Siegpunkte.
Dafür wird jeder Ort einzeln betrachtet und der Spieler mit der Kontrolle bekommt noch die Bonuspunkte des Ortes.
Auch die Karteneffekte der Diebe werden abgehandelt um die Siegpunkte zu erhalten.

Fazit: das Material ist sehr gut gemacht. Auch ein Plastik Inlay ist vorhanden.
Für diesen Preis wirklich top top top.
Das Spiel selber ist auch super.
Nach einer Runde hat man die Regeln verinnerlicht und kann ein Spiel zügig runterspielen.
Dazu gibt es 4 verschiedene Spielmodi und etliche Orte.
Für uns eines der TOP5 Spiele für 2 Spieler!

I love this game! It's possibly my favourite game of all time. I love the concept and it really comes across in the art, the pieces feel super high quality, I can't tell you how much difference the metal coins make in adding to the experience! Also packing the game away is super easy and almost fun. The gameplay takes a few rounds to get the hang of but once you do its super addictive. Every game has you on the edge of your seat because you don't know who won until you tally up the points at the end. I liked trying out different strategies to see what worked, and there is a lot of replayability to it. I would definitely recommend this game and I hope that there will be an expansion pack one day adding new cities, like Cairo or Athens!

I absolutely love this game! Upon unboxing you can tell this game is quality. Packaged in a flocked insert each element of the game is well made.

This 2 player experience will have you pitting your wits against another opponent. You battle it out playing thieves and gear to steal the most goods from a location. At the end, you tot up all the points and the highest score wins. To mix up gameplay, it comes with 4 separate country packs. Each pack includes new thieves, locations, gear and a new way to win points. This means you have to change your strategy each time you play.

It's incredibly fun to play and looks great on the table. Looking forward to expansions as adding new cards will keep this game interesting.

With plenty of meaningfully different ways to score points (location bonuses, crew, treasure collections) and a new set of locations from game to game, my wife and I already love it after having only played through the easiest difficulty level(Paris).
To be clear, this is not a point salad type of game despite there being multiple ways to score points. If you take advantage of all the scoring options and consider each play you make, you'll benefit from the inherent scoring synergy. However, your hand of cards will always be different so the route to a high score will likely never be the same twice, making each play even more meaningful.
It's also a deceptively short game once you get the hang of it, which also doesn't take long.
