Watch “A Bazaar game! A fun and educational 3M gem from famous designer Sid Sackson.,” a how-to-play guide for Bazaar from NewVenture Games on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by NewVenture Games on YouTube:

Bazaar is one of my favorites to play with family and friends. Simple to learn, easy to play, and challenging besides. A couple of notes from the editorial desk: 1. There's a third thing that can be done in each player's turn: purchasing a Merchandise Card. I didn't include that specifically, but that action is an end-of-turn option, and if possible, you can purchase two cards in the same turn. 2. I left out the third scoring level (sorry). When a star card has been revealed AND the card you purchase also has a star, the two add together for even more points. (It's all in the rule book, of course). I would love to hear your comments, and especially experiences in playing Bazaar. Google over to Eagle-Gryphon Games where they have "Samarkand Bazaar" for sale. You can find the older versions on line, too, of course. As always, thanks for watching! I hope you will subscribe and become a frequent visitor to the channel. Be sure to visit NewVenture Games! https://www.newventuregames.com https://www.facebook.com/NewVentureGames ...and be sure to play every day!

About Bazaar, from BoardGameGeek:

The components of Bazaar include a whole bunch of little chips, in five colors. At the start of the game, two equation cards are randomly chosen. Each equation card has five equations on it, for a total of ten equations that will be in effect for the duration of the game. The equations state equivalences between certain combinations of colors, for example: Red = Green Green Green Yellow = Blue Blue Red Four target cards are turned up, each with some combination of five chips represented on the target card (so a typical target card might be Green Green Blue Blue Blue). On your turn, you roll a colored die to randomly pick a colored chip for yourself, or you can make one exchange of your colored chips based on the equations. The goal is to end up with the right combination of chips to get one of the target cards. You want to do this quickly – and even more importantly, with as few chips left over as possible after you've purchased the target card – because this is how you score points. The original version is part of the 3M Bookshelf Series.
