Grifters

Grifters is deck-building without the deck. You are a crime boss in a dystopian world, and your whole organization sits in front of you: every specialist is either on the table or in your hand, ready to use whenever you like. You start with six specialist cards, recruit new operatives with special skills, and send them out to steal as much money as you can from corrupt governments, malicious corporations and, naturally, the other bosses. Because nothing disappears into a shuffled pile, you always know what you have and plan around it. The tension is in the take-that moments, where a rival's smart play lifts cash out of your pocket. Short, sharp and mean in the best way.
