About this board game

Flee The Scene is a 2015 steal-and-deliver race game for 2–5 players that plays in about 40 minutes.

Players rob museums across the Mediterranean, taking antiquities and moving them toward delivery. The race is fast-paced, and every decision matters as competitors try to build the most rewarding collection before time runs out.

Movement takes place using three forms of transport:

  • Trains
  • Trucks
  • Ships

Each player can carry only three antiquities at a time. That limit makes route planning and timing essential: you must optimize your movement, decide what to carry, and deliver valuable items while edging ahead of the competition.

Every delivered antiquity scores points, so successful deliveries are the key to winning. The aim is not simply to steal, but to get the right goods to their destinations before another player can take the lead.

The game enters its final stage when one player scores 13 or more points. Once that happens, all other players receive one last turn before the game ends. The player with the highest score wins, making the final deliveries especially important.

With its Mediterranean setting, restricted carrying capacity, and combination of theft, transport, and delivery, Flee The Scene offers a focused race where efficient movement can make the difference between victory and defeat.
