About this game

Card Thief is a solitaire-style stealth card game that transforms your deck into a shadowy world of cunning heists and daring escapes.

Sneak through the darkness as a master thief. Extinguish torches, pickpocket guards, and steal precious treasure without getting caught. Every card you flip is a calculated risk. Every move could be your last.

From the makers of Card Crawl, the hit indie card dungeon crawler, Card Thief distills the tension of classic stealth games into a sleek, strategic card game you can play in minutes. Easy to learn, endlessly deep.

Plan. Steal. Escape. Repeat.

With a rich layer of tactical decision-making, risk/reward choices, and roguelike replayability, Card Thief is the perfect pick-up-and-play strategy card game for fans of stealth, puzzle games, and solo card games alike.

Ratings and reviews

I have played this for years, and never tire of it. It is my #1 favorite Android game of ALL TIME! The music, sound, animations, art, and gameplay are top-notch! It is free to play, and not pay to win. The cost to not needs ads is tiny. This game is, in my opinion, as close to perfect as a mere mortal indie game developer could ever produce, and better than the majority of AAA games I have purchased in the past few years.

I absolutely love stealth games, as well as card games in general, so I really liked it. It just gives off a D&D vibe, and the music and atmosphere is perfect. My only complaint is that there is no real end goal, unless you want to compete on a leaderboard. The treasure you steal in a heist is your high score, and nothing else. Stolen goods are for unlocking contracts with other thieves that have special rules, but the ones you get on contracts don't do anything. A beautiful game nonetheless.

Finally, a good free to play game! Way too many free games now are little more than a TV channel for ads. Meanwhile, this game NEVER FORCES YOU TO WATCH ADS. Ads are only offered to speed up rewards from your heists instead of waiting an hour per chest. You can disable them permanently by buying the game. There are multiple levels as well as daily and weekly events. The art style is fun and the game has near infinite replayability. Kudos to the dev, this is one of my favorites now.
