Smuggle (1981) – The Bluffing Card Game of Customs and Contraband

Smuggle is a fast and cheeky card game where players take on the role of travellers trying to sneak valuable goods past Customs without getting caught. From wine and cigars to jewellery and even the Crown itself, the aim is to bluff your way through and build up the most money by the end of the game. Fun, sneaky, and full of laughter, Smuggle is a classic game of risk and daring that keeps everyone guessing.

How to Play
Players take turns acting as travellers while one player is the Customs Officer. On your turn, you draw four cards and “declare” what you’re carrying — you can either be honest or try to smuggle through undeclared items. The Customs Officer then decides whether to accept your declaration or search your luggage. If caught lying, you’ll face hefty fines, but if you succeed, you’ll save money and get away with smuggling. Special cards like the Diplomatic Bag or the Crown add extra twists, making bluffing and strategy even more exciting. The game continues until every player has been the Customs Officer once, and the richest player wins.

Why Rent
Smuggle is a brilliant choice for families and friends who enjoy bluffing, risk-taking, and plenty of laughs around the table. It’s easy to learn, quick to play, and offers endless fun as players try to outwit each other. Perfect for game nights where you want something lively and unpredictable, Smuggle brings out everyone’s best (and sneakiest) poker face.
