Scoring:

Once in your car, your points are safe. Number cards

are worth their face value, Jacks are worth 11, Queens

12, and Kings 13. Aces are worth 15. Jokers are worth

zero (don’t shop for them!).

Strategy:

It’s up to each player to decide how much stuff is safe to

carry, but just remember that the more loot you’ve got,

the bigger a target you become.

You can take several turns in a row if you shoot

everybody. Of course, you’d better be prepared, because

one of them is bound to have an ace.

Beware of dead weight in your hand. You need to

burn through cards quickly, and that means clearing out

those hard-to-play sixes! It may also mean playing 2’s

and even 10’s just to get them out of your hand, even if

you don’t need to move any further.

It’s possible for several people to gang up on the

leader, but they really have to make a concerted effort.

Your best bet is to convince everyone

else

to gang up on

the leader, and then go for points yourself!

Spree!

Springtime. Midnight. The Mall is beckoning.

Welcome to LeGrand Mall, the oldest and most

poorly secured shopping mall in the world. It’s as

leakproof as the Titanic and as solid as a wet

paper bag. This place just begs to be robbed.

Enter you. And your infantile collection of friends.

Included with this Game:

You Also Need:

It’s not enough to simply loot this mall. No, you

have to do it with a certain amount of flair.

Which boils down to an all-night looting race, with

shopping carts, flashlights, and guns.

The object? Park your car, dash into the mall, and

load up your little red wagon. You can snitch stuff

out of the stores if you like, but it’s even more fun

to steal it from your friends.

Which would explain why you’re carrying those

big guns.

Two matching pawns for each player: one of these

pawns will represent the player, and the other will be his

car; two six-sided dice; two standard poker decks with

Jokers (shuffled into a single deck), and a way to keep

score, such as chips, paper, or a battery of monks.

Hong Kong Rules:

So far, you’ve only read the rules for the basic game.

In the second edition, we introduced a bunch of extra

violence rules that we’d barely tested. Here they are!

Power Shots:

Your shots go one space farther.

Basically, you add 1 to your roll. That means, among

other things, that 1’s don’t always miss.

The Fountain:

Shooting people pushes them through

the fountain. If they would stop right inside the foun-

tain, they keep going to the other side.

Moving Cars:

Your car is now a weapon, so there are

some new rules for moving it. You still end your turn

if you get into your car; you also end your turn by get-

ting out of your car after you move it. However, you

now need to

roll dice

to drive between parking spaces,

just like a normal move.

The reason for the car movement rules is so that you

can now shoot people from your car, and be shot

while in it. You can also run people over, if you’re

lucky.

Auto Etiquette:

You can’t get out of your car until it’s

parked. And you can only drive in the parking lot and

the open spaces (not in the shops).

Running People Over:

If you run over someone in

your car, they fall over, just as if they were shot. (They

can’t Ace this.) You can also shoot people from your

car, and if you hit your target, you get an extra turn.

Now, there’s a little problem: You can’t

steal

stuff

from people you’re running over, because you’re in

the car. Instead, all the stuff in their cart is spilled all

over the ground when you hit them, and is immedi-

ately discarded. Which is even better, if you think

about it.... unless you wanted the game to ever end.

The board represents LeGrand Mall, that easily-robbed

repository of consumer goods you’ve been hearing

about. The darker squares are shops, the lighter

squares are open space. The outer ring is the parking

lot, and the cars in the parking lot represent parking

spots. The thick black lines are walls.

In the center is a two-square “fountain.” You can’t

move

through this space, but you can

shoot

through it.

It’s sort of a semi-wall.

The Game in Brief:

Players run around the mall, grabbing stuff from the

shops and also from each other. To keep your stuff safe,

you need to take it to your car.

The winner is the first player to lock enough stuff in

their car. For a good target score, based on the number

of players, check the table on the back page.

To Begin:

Shuffle the two poker decks together. The backs don’t

need to be the same, but it helps. Leave the Jokers in;

you can even use extra Jokers if you have them.

Deal a hand of five cards to each play-

er. Put the deck where everyone can

reach it, with space for discards

beside it. When the deck runs out,

shuffle the discards and replace the

deck.

Roll dice to see who will park

first. Starting with that player and

moving to the

right,

take turns putting

your cars in the parking spaces around

the mall; it will help a little if you park close

to the cards in your starting hand. You can’t park in

an occupied space, in case that wasn’t obvious.

Normal play begins with player who parked

last,

and

proceeds to the

left.

Players’ pawns start at their cars.

On Your Turn:

At the beginning

and

at the end of your turn, you draw

your hand up to five cards.

You can perform three basic actions on your turn:

Moving, Shopping, and Shooting. There are also some

special actions, like stealing other peoples’ stuff, and

stashing your loot in your car. All will be made plain

below.

Moving:

To move, roll both dice, and move as far as you like, up

to the number you rolled.

You don’t have to take the entire roll; you can stop at

any time.

You can only move orthogonally (not diagonally)

and you can’t move through walls. You can’t move

through the fountain.

You can move freely through other players, and cars,

and you can even stop on the same spot with another

player (or car).

The one thing you can’t do is

double back.

This

means going from one square to another, and then

immediately back. For example, moving from the J

the 9

and back to the J

in two steps. You can pass

through the same space multiple times, you just can’t do

it right away. This rule will hardly ever bother you, but it

means that when you move into a dead end (the Aces,

Kings, and Queens), you have to stop moving.

Shopping:

Your hand is your shopping list. To play a card from

your hand, you must move through a store that sells it

(i.e. a space marked with that card), then lay

the card on the table in front of you. This

card is now in your “shopping cart.”

You can play cards into your

shopping cart at any point along your

move, even on the square where you

start. You will often lay down sever-

al cards on the same turn.

If you have both cards of exactly

the same rank and suit, you can play

them together; you don’t have to walk

over the same space twice.

Robbing Others:

Shops aren’t the only place to get stuff. You can steal

cards from other people’s shopping carts, just by mov-

ing over them and playing the right cards. It’s a little like

shopping, but not exactly.

• You only need to match the

rank

of the card you’re

stealing, not the suit. For example, any 5 can steal a 5K.

• The card you

play

is discarded, but the card you

steal

goes into your cart.

• Just one card is enough to steal

every

card of the

same rank. In other words, if your victim has three

Jacks, you can play just

one

Jack and steal them all.

• You can play as many steals as you want at the

moment you walk over your victim, but you must play

them one at a time, to give your victim the chance to Ace

each one.

Special Cards:

10’s and 2’s:

These cards function as Move-10 and

Move-2, respectively. Play them to move further than the

number you’ve rolled.

Though it doesn’t usually matter, you do not have to

play move cards before you start moving. This means

that you can move to the end of your roll, then play a 10,

finish that move, play another one, and so on. However,

you still can’t double back, so playing a move card after

you move into a dead end won’t do any good.

As with normal movement, you don’t have to take the

entire benefit of a Move card. In fact, it’s sometimes a

good idea to play 2’s just to get them out of your hand,

even if you don’t want to move any farther.

Aces:

These can be played normally, or as “stop” cards.

Stop cards make certain other cards and actions fail,

even on other players’ turns.

You can use an Ace to:

• Stop someone from shopping. The card they

played is discarded instead.

• Stop someone from robbing another player’s cart

(like yours). The card they played is discarded.

• Stop a movement card from working.

• Stop a shot from hitting someone (see shooting,

below).

• Stop another Ace from working.

That last one is worth attention: If you “Ace” someone’s

Ace, then whatever they were trying to stop doesn’t stop.

And that might have been another Ace, and so on.

You

can’t

use an Ace to do either of the following,

though we’re sure you’d like to:

• Make your own shot succeed even though you

rolled too low to hit.

• Stop a player from putting stuff in their car.

Jokers:

Jokers are wild cards; they can be anything you

want. You can use a Joker as an Ace, a movement card,

or to steal cards from someone else. However, you

probably don’t want to play a Joker when shopping,

because they aren’t worth any points.

Shooting:

You knew we’d get to the shooting part eventually.

Shooting incapacitates your enemies (yay) but it’s also

useful because a successful shot gives you another turn.

When you shoot someone, your victim must be in a

straight line of sight (orthogonal, not diagonal), and

must not be on the same square with you. You can shoot

across the fountain, and you can even shoot past other

players and cars, but you can’t shoot through walls.

To shoot, roll one die and start counting where you

stand. If you stop counting before you reach your target,

you miss, which means if you roll a 1 you’ll miss auto-

matically.

If you stop counting exactly on the target, you hit it.

If you keep counting, you not only hit, but you push the

target backward until you stop counting, or until you hit

a wall (or the fountain, or the edge of the board).

The player you hit falls over. If you miss, you fall

over. Players who are lying down can’t play cards.

For example,

Let’s say Brad is shooting at Janet.

Janet is two spaces away from Brad, i.e., there is one

open space between them. If Brad rolls a 1 or a 2, he

will miss, and fall over. If he rolls a 3, he will hit Janet

exactly, and knock her over. If he rolls a higher number,

he will push Janet backward, either to the end of his

shot, or into an obstacle.

Janet can play an Ace to foil Brad’s shot, if she has

one. She doesn’t have to do this until after she sees if his

roll is good.

When you shoot someone, it ends your turn. You can’t

do anything else after shooting, except draw your hand

back up to five. However, if your shot is successful,

you’ll take

another

turn right away.

If You Hit Someone:

If you hit your target, lay the victim’s pawn down. This is

significant, because if a player’s pawn is lying down, that

player

can’t be shot at,

and also

can’t play any cards.

The first rule keeps a shooting rampage from lasting

forever; the second rule keeps downed players from

playing Aces to prevent being robbed.

When you shoot someone, you

take an extra turn.

This gives you ample opportunity to rob your target, do

some more shopping, or even go shoot someone else!

Players who are lying down will stand back up at the

beginning of their next turn.

If You Miss:

If you shoot at another player and miss,

you

fall over

instead. You’ll stand back up on your next turn.

As mentioned above nothing can help you if you

miss. You can’t, for example, play an Ace to make your

shot successful. Nice try.

Heading to your Car:

Once you’ve got a few cards in your shopping cart,

you’ll probably want to put them in your car, because

this is how you actually score points and win the game.

Move to your car, discard the contents of your shopping

cart, and record the points (see below). Scoring ends

your turn.

Being at your own car has special qualities: you can’t

shoot or be shot from that space, you can’t play cards,

and you may take your next turn to move your car.

Moving your car:

if you start at your car, you can

take a full turn to drive your car to a different parking

spot. You still draw your hand back up to five, but you

don’t do anything else on that turn.
