Silk Road (2006)

About this game

From Bruno Faidutti´s website: The Silk Road is a kind of "pick up and deliver" game where all players are in the same caravan going east to west, from China to Europe. Each player tries to have the caravan go through the cities that fit him best, to make the best deals with the local traders, and to be the richest in the end.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
