Teach the Thief

Read full description

Meet Pip: small paws, big plans, and a weakness for shiny things. In Teach the Thief, every heist starts with two choices. Pick two treasures that share a color, a shape, or both, then watch Pip scoop up everything that matches. The trick? Make every grab count—and leave the protected treasure alone. A LITTLE CHOICE. A BIG HAUL. Match different shapes of the same color to collect that color. Match the same shape in different colors to collect that shape. Match both to narrow the haul. Preview exactly what Pip will steal before you commit. 50 HEISTS TO OUTSMART Explore a playful museum map full of bite-sized puzzles. Plan around protected pieces, preserve useful pairs, and clear each board within your grabs. LEARN WITH PIP A hands-on Level Zero tutorial walks you through the basics. Experiment with free undo, restart, and hints as you find your way to the perfect heist. DRESS FOR THE JOB Earn Rose after Heist 4 and Midnight after Heist 15. Or give Pip a new look with optional King, Wizard, Pirate, Astronaut, Detective, and Chef outfits.
