About the game

Broke, principled, and full of terrible ideas. Build sentences from word blocks and watch them come to life. No strength needed here, no sword, no good intentions: just look closely, move the one piece that matters, and watch everything else fall apart.

Original Steam description


In a world of full pockets and light fingers, someone has to balance the scales.

A puzzle game where you steal using nothing but your head.

★ Write the plan
Drag words, build the sentence and hit Execute. The trickster follows it to the letter… even when you get it wrong.



★ Everyone has a weak spot
The dog who only goes quiet for a bone, the donkey who would give anything for a carrot, the one who won't budge from his spot even if you shove him. Find the gap and use it.



★ They make the mess
Move one small piece and step aside: everyone else will take care of the rest.



★ Caught? Rewind
No violence, no timer, no punishment. Go back in an instant: your plan is still there, waiting for you to change one piece.



★ Hidden loot
Every heist hides stars and a secret treasure. Grab it all and your fame will spread across the kingdom.

★ Six chapters of roguery
From a dusty village all the way to the royal palace, with ever more important victims and ever more twisted plans.
