Description

In the classic 1991 game Musketeers, designed by Franz Josef Lamminger, you'll join the Queen's service and compete to acquire three valuable gems. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, 2 to 4 players can dive into the action in no time. The goal is to outmaneuver the Cardinal's Guards and come out on top, earning the most silver coins in 20 to 40 minutes of playtime. As you simultaneously select cards and engage in skirmishes, you'll need to bluff and manage your hand carefully to succeed. With auction and bidding mechanics, you'll have to decide which cards to play and when to take risks. The player with the most coins at the end of the rounds wins, or you can keep playing until someone reaches 100 points. With its unique blend of hand management and simultaneous action selection, Musketeers offers a fun and challenging experience for players of all skill levels.
