Petty Theft Streetcar, Prague

What is this?

"Petty Theft Streetcar, Prague" is a tile-based maze game inspired by the Amazing Master Labyrinth boardgame.

In the original game you hunted magic creatures in a haunted fantasy maze. Here, you will race the pickpocket express (streetcar) through the maddening alleys of Prague on a quest to recover valuables before somebody else takes them.
