The Big Store is a con game game where you plan the cons running the game. Simple, right? Well, it is, actually! I've distilled the structure of the elaborate, constructed-reality con game down to where your crew makes your con characters, meets the mark and makes a plan right away, and then you play out the whole con in a few hours. Think Oceans Eleven, The Sting, and (of course) The Rockford Files.
It Hails From World Wide Wrestling, incorporating the ideas of performing for an audience, the players working together even while their characters are in conflict, and changing roles as needed in play to get what you want. You do not need any knowledge of WWWRPG to play, but if you have some you'll recognize those aspects in The Big Store.
No sweat and no commitment, but if you're interested in con games, heists, dramatic reversals and giving the greedy their comeuppance, you might want to check it out!
