Damn good puzzle game 10/102 found this helpful
it's great for playing with friends. it's difficult and frustrating (because the guards always catch us and are always coincidentally going to our location) but it's fun to play.
I have not played the physical boardgame, so I can't compare the two, but this game is a lot of fun. I have only played it by myself and it really does well to capture that old style caper/heist genre. I have not noticed any bugs or other glitches yet. Also, the music is great. Nice touch. Definitely worth picking up if you just want an easy to learn, easy to play board game. It makes me want to pick up the physical game so I can bring it over to friends' houses.
Burgle Bros, developed and published by Fowers Games, is a digital adaptation of the acclaimed cooperative board game of the same name, translating its tabletop tension into a sleek, accessible, and atmospheric heist experience on Steam. At its core, it is a game about teamwork, planning, and suspense, where players must infiltrate a multi-floor building, crack safes, and escape without being caught by roaming guards. The premise is deceptively simple: you and your crew of thieves have one week to execute the perfect heist. Yet beneath this playful surface lies a deeply strategic experience where every move feels weighted with consequence. It’s not just about cracking safes; it’s about anticipating patterns, outsmarting security, and knowing when to take calculated risks. Each playthrough of Burgle Bros begins with the setup of a new building composed of procedurally generated floors filled with hidden tiles representing rooms, traps, alarms, and treasures. At first, you know nothing about your surroundings—the map must be revealed tile by tile, creating a sense of discovery and danger as you uncover what lies ahead. Some tiles may offer tools or shortcuts, while others might trig…
I absolutely love the premise and gameplay mechanics, but after playing it for over 3 hours and not winning a single game, it's clear that creators needed to balance the game more for the average user.
I'm a fan of the tabletop version, and it's really cool to have a digital implementation that is not only faithful to the core game, but adds content that is only possible through the digital medium
