Do you give up a chance to use a splendid action in favour of getting even more astounding cards? Since every card can be used in multiple ways, Dale of Merchants requires some tough choices. You can’t win the game without letting go of your cards. Dive into Daimyria and meet the cast of colourful animalfolks!

The goal of the game is to finish up your merchant stall before anyone else. The first player to do so is awarded with the access to the legendary Guild of Extraordinary Traders.
