Will you outbid the other merchants and get the commodities you need? Or will you lose all your money in the quest for power? Each day, you'll go to the wholesale market, where the highest quality wares await a keen eye and a competitive bid - the finest cloth, exotic spices, grain from fields abroad, colourful dyes, lush furs and, rarely, gold from mines far across the waters. Medici takes place over three days (rounds). Taking on the role of seafaring traders, you'll present goods to be auctioned and bid to fill your ships with cargo. When the day ends, you'll receive coin for your wares. But be careful - the money you'll use to bid is also your end-game points! A classic Reiner Knizia auction game for 2-6 players, now with a whole new look! This new edition of Medici features new artwork and visuals designed to immerse you in the beauty and bustle of 16th century merchant trading in Florence, Italy.
