How to unlock the Thief Extraordinaire achievement in Marooners - Definitive Guide
My recommendation is to play with a second controller or online with a friend, and hope for the stage "Twin Temple". This mode is hot-potato; the statue torch gives increasing amounts of coins, but then blows up. Have your opponent face a wall, then just wail on their back. This will prevent the torch from being grabbed by you, as well as providing many points that you can then steal. Make sure not to be too close after the flame goes out, in case you can get hit by the explosion too. Then make sure to grab as many coins as you can before the stage ends.
If you're unlucky and don't get Twin Temple, any stage that is small in area, has walls (so as not to fall offstage), and has respawning gems can work well. Have them grab some points, then attack them and try to get some of the dropped coins.
To see your current progress, go to the "Statistics" option on the main menu. Under "General", your current coins stolen is listed under "Points Stolen" (third from top). Once you get 100 points stolen across all Party games played, then the achievement will unlock.
To steal coins from another player, they first have to collect in coins, emeralds, and diamonds, and then you need to hit them so they drop their loot. This is cumulative across ALL games, both online and offline. It does not have to be 100 coins in one single minigame.
If you do not have this by the time you have finished your 100 games, start up a local game with 5 bots. This will increase the difficulty, but they will constantly hit each other, spewing coins all over the place for most of the minigame matches.
You steal coins by hitting other players with . Once you collect 100 coins across multiple minigames you will get this and previous achievements.
