Who it's for

Players who enjoy auction games with a spatial twist and a bit of positional needling over who cashes in on each visitor.

Not for you if…

You dislike auction bidding or want a cooperative, low-conflict evening. Nineties pacing and dated availability may also put you off.

🦊

Vibe's take

A tight economic scrap where auctions set the stage and tourist movement becomes a quiet turf war over who profits from whom.

About this game

You are a shopkeeper in a Moroccan bazaar, buying colorful stalls at auction while wooden tourists in little hats stream in through the gate. Steer visitors into your own shops to earn money, or plant them in a rival's shop to skim a cut. When the last tourist is placed, the biggest bankroll wins.
