## What is Rook & Ruse?

Rook has excellent taste. Unfortunately, it belongs to other people.

Slip into miniature midnight worlds, read the guards' patrols, and liberate a collection of beautifully unnecessary treasures. Every move advances the room. Sometimes the cleverest move is waiting. Sometimes it is disappearing into a planter with a very expensive biscuit.

Plan an elegant escape through sixty compact heists. Collect three calling cards, chase the perfect route, and master hiding places, brass locks, pressure switches, timed lasers, and paired vents across five locations.

Meet the crew: Rook, Pip, Clover, Miso, Nova, and Captain. Unlock new raccoons as you complete campaign milestones, choose your Hideout scenery, and display a favorite treasure. Each district has its own illustrated setting, music, and atmosphere.

Undo freely. Retry instantly. All campaign jobs are free. Optional advertising supports hints and occasional breaks between jobs; the one-time Patron Pass removes between-job ads and provides hints without ads. No subscriptions or energy timers.

Return for a daily caper and share a soundtracked film of your actual getaway. The campaign works offline.

A fine evening for a little mischief.
