Description

"The Adventurous Trading Game in the Indian Ocean

Sailors and merchants from all nations meet in Zanzibar to purchase valuable spices. Each trader sails his two merchant ships along the Zanzibar coastline and heads for the various transshipment points in the bays. The captains are sometimes hindered by pirates on their journeys. In the different bays, you must load at least four of the same type of trade goods and exchange them for cash. Whoever gets back to their homeland first with their fleet and who purchases and sells their goods the most cleverly is the winner."
