Description
Asante is a two-player game where you take on the role of an African merchant, aiming to make the most money possible by buying and selling goods like furs, silk, and jewelry. With easy-to-learn rules, you'll be navigating the marketplace in no time, using your action points to collect sets of valuable items and outmaneuver your opponent. The game is designed by Rüdiger Dorn and has been a staple of economic gaming since its release in 2013. As you play, you'll encounter special characters and holy sites that offer unique abilities and advantages, adding a layer of strategy to the game. With a moderate level of in-game text, you'll want to have a crib sheet handy to get the most out of your experience. Asante can be played on its own or combined with the Jambo expansion for an even more immersive marketplace experience, offering 40 minutes of fun and competition for you and your opponent.
