S.O.S. Special Operative Simon (2019)

"When instinct is the last defense
Against threats unforeseen,
I takes a cunning master thief
Perchance to save a queen."

The Sly line of games, until now, has featured Jack Sly, cunning master thief, in his rise to become the most legendary jewel thief in history. But now, the story diverges, with a focus on Jack's twin, Simon Sly, who has been recruited to protect the Queen of an African nation from her enemies. In the meantime, can Simon subtly help his brother pull off the most incredible jewel heist in history? With his own life and his duty to protect the queen tugging him every which way at once, can he rise to the challenge?

Special Operative Simon is a card game akin to traditional Cribbage. In gameplay, there are a series of Target cards valued 9-15, featuring various spies Simon encounters, some more dangerous than others. As you combine a limited supply of 14 cards (valued 2-7 with a variable Ace) against these targets, you will only have the opportunity to retrieve these cards when meeting targets precisely. Therefore, the challenge is to complete all of Simon's missions with a dwindling supply of Combiner cards, and not let the Combiner cards run out too soon.

While its roots are traditional, the game features character artwork designed to bring players into this world of spies in the 1940's.
