In Vegetable Thieves (2010), an original board game by Cally Trench, rival thieves try to steal beds of vegetables from an allotment and load them onto their lorries while taking potshots at their competitors. Players are sometimes presented with a choice between theft and attempted murder, and most players make their choices without compassion, playing to win. Only once has a player objected to the rules of the game; on one occasion, a child of four or five asked if we could just steal the vegetables and not shoot each other. I agreed. The violent and illegal nature of the actions in the game contrasts with the beauty of the drawings on the board, which are uncovered as the beds of vegetables are taken away.
