15 Minute Heist is a cooperative game in which players work together to empty a vault of gold before time runs out. Dice decide which laser locks open and close and when the elevator moves, so the team has to make the most of every roll.

How it plays

On your turn, roll the two colour dice. Each die can open or close a laser lock of the matching colour on the track, or move the elevator to the next level if the colour matches. The same dice control both the locks and the elevator, so the group has to decide quickly how to use them best.

You also move your own cart along the tracks. Open a path to an unlocked vault with gold, drive there and load up, then take your cart to the elevator console in the middle of the board and unload. A cart can move freely along any tracks until its way is blocked.

Winning and losing

• The elevator carries only 3 gold pallets at a time, so it has to make several trips.
• The team needs to bring 12 pallets to street level before the 15 minutes are up to win.
• If time runs out first, everyone loses.

App required

A free app must be downloaded for full play. It works as the timer and also tells players when their partners at street level, who are not players, have opened a new vault. Gold can only be taken from opened vaults.
