About this board game

Break the Safe is a 30-minute teamwork game for 2–4 players, in which spies race through the Evil Guys Complex to find four keys, unlock the safe, and stop the countdown.

Your mission is a battle against the clock. The timer begins at 30 minutes and keeps ticking as your team attempts to overcome the dangers of EGC, recover the keys, and complete the final return to the starting point.

Each key is hidden beneath a booby trap. To claim it, the team must have the specific tool needed to disarm that trap. Choosing how to proceed while time is running out creates the central challenge of this fast-paced spy mission.

There are more threats inside the complex. A guard and a guard dog patrol the area, and being caught sends spies to jail. Your team must contend with these dangers while working toward the four keys and the safe.

  • For 2–4 players
  • Approximately 30 minutes of play
  • A teamwork-focused race against a 30-minute countdown
  • Four keys hidden under tool-specific booby traps
  • A guard and guard dog that can send players to jail

To win, obtain all four keys, open The Safe, and return to the start in time to stop the clock. Released in 2003, Break the Safe offers a clear, suspenseful objective: coordinate your team, handle the traps, avoid capture, and beat the timer.
