Bandido Alcatraz

Bandido Alcatraz is a cooperative card game for 1–4 players — a limited-edition twist on the beloved Bandido, celebrating ten years of the original with a brand-new challenge.

For a decade, players have been trying to stop Bandido from escaping. Now the tables have turned. This time, you're on his side. Work together to dig a single escape tunnel through the legendary prison of Alcatraz, gather the equipment needed for the breakout, and race against the rising tide. If the tunnels flood before you find a way out, the escape fails. One exit. One chance. Can you get him off the Rock?

With the same simple, satisfying tile-laying DNA as the original — and a completely fresh objective — Bandido Alcatraz is a quick, clever cooperative game that plays in 15 minutes and works just as well solo as it does with four.

What's good?

• A fresh spin on a classic — same mechanics, completely new goal
• Cooperative play with a solo mode included
• Plays in around 15 minutes — easy to fit in before or after a bigger game
• Simple enough for kids aged 6+, enjoyable for the whole family
