Burgle Bros. is a cooperative game for up to 4 players. Players are members of a crew trying to pull off a robbery of a highly secure building — without getting caught. The building has three floors (4x4 tiles), each has its own safe to crack. Players begin on the first floor and have to escape to their helicopter waiting on the roof.

Players have three stealth tokens. Whenever they are on the same tile with a guard, they will lose one. If any player is caught without a stealth token, the game ends. If players are able to open all three safes, and escape through the stairs to the roof they win.
