Designed by Monte Cook, Stealing Stories for the Devil is a fast-paced tabletop roleplaying game in which you save existence as we know it by bending reality to carry out the perfect heist.
When you play Stealing Stories, you pull off the perfect heist, every time. Unique mechanics and structure ensure players and PCs are competent and cool at every stage of the adventure, and always have a trick up their sleeves. A collaborative scenario-building process alleviates GM prep as the group formulates its elaborate plan while creating the adventure scenario at the same time. Unique mechanical elements such as mission cards hand the initiative to the players, turning crisis into opportunity just when it looks like there’s no hope of success.
And, as reality-shaping liars, PCs can reshape their situation in literally any way they can conceive of. And lies always succeed. (While success is never in doubt, the price may be steep.) Throughout play, unprecedented player agency ensures the PCs create and pull off amazing feats, completing their heists against incredible odds and looking great while they do it.
None of this means it’s easy—pulling off an awesome heist is just as challenging as any other feat in tabletop gaming. The GM brings the unexpected to the table, adding challenges to the scenario and plan, plus twists and turns to the plotline.
A unique adventure structure inspires the GM’s deviousness and prompts plot twists at just the right time for maximum effect. The players will need to be crafty, quick, and careful, and make great use of their resources—but Stealing Stories for the Devil sets them up for success.
And, speaking of the GM, Stealing Stories for the Devil is a zero-prep RPG. A gaming group that’s conversant in the streamlined rules will spend literally no time preparing for the game—not even the GM. The boxed edition contains everything you need to play. It’s filled with GM resources making it easy to layer your heists with loads of detail—maps, locations, organizations, names, everything the GM needs to turn a heist concept into a fully realized scenario right there at the table.

Stealing Stories for the Devil is perfect for a fun and exciting one-shot, but it also contains a twelve-episode “season,” or campaign, that digs into the reasons behind the decay of reality, and contains just as many exciting and unexpected twists as any individual heist. And like most RPGs, it can be run as an open-ended campaign, with characters growing their skills and abilities as they face increasing challenges.
