Description
Afrikan tähti is a classic board game that's all about exploration and excitement. Designed by Kari Mannerla and first published in 1951, it's a simple yet thrilling game that's perfect for 2 to 5 players. The goal is to explore Africa, searching for gems and trying to find the legendary Star of Africa diamond. Players start in either Cairo or Tangier and move through the continent, flipping tokens to see what they'll discover - it could be nothing, some valuable gems, or even a robber trying to steal their money. The game takes about 45 minutes to play, and with its easy-to-learn rules, it's great for families and children. The race to deliver the Star of Africa diamond back to the starting point is intense, and other players can still win by finding a horseshoe token. With no necessary in-game text, it's a game that can be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of language.
