How a raid works
5 · Round over
The Garbage Truck ends the round. Your raid is lost, stashes are safe.
Winning
Reach 30 pts (2 players), 25 (3), 22 (4) or 20 (5): finish with equal raids, highest score wins.
1 · Raid
Flip Bin cards one at a time into your raid pile. Snacks add points.
2 · Bust
Flip your 3rd Alarm and the Sheriff catches you: you bust and lose your raid pile.
3 · Stash
Stop any time to stash your raid pile and score it.
4 · Tricks
Meddle (purple) hits another raider. Sneak (teal) protects you.
