	Description Edit \| History

A very unusual game which comes in a beautiful wooden box. Central element is a sort of necklace case (in wood) comprising three levels, each of which has a drawer on each side. Each level can be rotated individually. The whole case looks the same on the top and the bottom so it can be turned around. Everybody chooses a role: wife, jeweler, detective, or master thief and tries to get the biggest loot of beautiful gems.
