Description

In Jaipur, you're one of two powerful traders vying for the top spot in the city of Rajasthan. To win the privilege of being invited to the Maharaja's court, you need to outdo your competitor by buying, exchanging, and selling goods at the best prices. This fast-paced card game is all about tactics, risk, and luck, as you take turns deciding whether to take or sell cards. You can choose to take all the camels, grab one card from the market, or swap cards between the market and your hand. When you sell, you can only offload one type of good at a time, but selling multiple cards of the same good can bring big rewards. With camels playing a crucial role in trading and worth something at the end of the round, you need to use them smartly to come out on top in this 30-minute game of strategy and skill.
