About this board game
Raccoon Robbers is a 2–4-player race game that plays in around 30 minutes, as rival raccoon gangs compete to reach a famous golden rubbish bin.
That bin is filled with endless amounts of thrown-away food, making it the ultimate prize for every gang boss. To win, players must guide their raccoons across a playing area assembled from individual pieces representing the fields they can move through.
Only one raccoon can occupy a field at a time. When a raccoon moves onto an occupied field, it can throw another player’s figure down to a lower place, creating a tense contest over position and progress.
- Use hand cards to let your own raccoons climb up or down.
- Throw rival raccoons down to slow their advance.
- Move your figures upward or climb down voluntarily before another player throws them down.
Timing is central to every decision. You can push your own raccoons higher, disrupt an opponent’s route, or descend by choice to avoid being forced down later. Each hand of cards offers opportunities to change your position and interfere with the other gangs.
The playing area’s flexible setup gives Raccoon Robbers a different feel from game to game. With various difficulty levels available through that setup, players can choose a challenge that suits their group while facing a changing route toward the golden rubbish bin.
For players who enjoy interactive racing and direct positional competition, this raccoon-filled climb combines movement, tactical card play, and the constant threat of being knocked down. Reach the top before the other gang bosses and claim the food-filled prize.
