You're in a game, but do you know (Part 28)....

 Board Games!

This was the board game for Stop Thief!  It was another 'computer game' from circa 1980, wherein there was thief in one of these stores, and the players had to catch him. I don't remember all the specific rules, but what I remember is, at times, the computer would have the thief 'run', and it would give off sounds like feet running, doors slamming, subway traveling, break glass, etc, etc.  And you could use those sound to track him and narrow in on where he currently is. 

It was all pretty awesome and mind blowing for a 13 year old Polt in 1980 right around the same time Pacman was just coming out.
