Watch “Let's walk through Caravanserai (Board Game),” a board game review for Caravanserai from jPlay on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by jPlay on YouTube:

In this video I walk you through a couple of rounds of "Caravanserai", simulating a 2-player-game (which is not really different than a 3 or 4 player game though).

About Caravanserai, from BoardGameGeek:

Playing as a local stable boy who works in the Caravanserai, you have the privilege of being allowed into the restricted inner courtyard. This opens up a unique opportunity for you to make some money by doing your own business with the travellers, and acquiring the merchandise much sought after by local traders outside, who have no access to the area. Your starting resources are modest and you should use them wisely. Sometimes you will need to borrow money to carry out your actions, but supplying the local traders with the goods they want, you should earn enough to invest more, in addition to paying off your debt. The first player to accumulate 32 dirhams triggers the final round of the game, but the player with the most savings wins. You have two optional actions per turn, and each must be preceded by a mandatory move along the courtyard path. A move can cover 1-3 spaces, and once in a turn you can chose to roll in the hope of making a longer move - but never longer than what you have rolled. Each space offers an action: you can borrow money from the money changers; buy, sell or exchange goods at the pavilions and merchants' stalls; or trade goods directly with the travellers. However, there is a unique fountain in the centre of the courtyard, which rotates each time when certain transactions are made, and this can affect your income! The local traders will give you minor or major orders for the goods they need; completing these orders will not only earn you money, but also help you pay off your debts, increase your savings and obtain ability cards that will give you additional benefits during or at the end of the game. It is worth completing as many major orders as you can, as the order cards are collectible and the sets are worth additional points. Caravanserai is an easy-to-learn trading and resource management game that is fun for the whole family. It involves sufficient luck factor to help beginners catch up, but it is also a fairly strong strategic and tactical challenge. Hungarian description: A karavánszeráj zárt terület, oda nem juthatnak be kívülről a helyi kereskedők, pedig szívesen vásárolnának a karavánok által szállított mesés portékából! Ezt használják ki az ott szolgáló szemfüles lovászfiúk (a játékosok), akiknek bejárása van a falak közé. Titokban, a saját zsebükre üzletelgetnek a megpihenő karavánokkal, majd a megszerzett árut némi haszonnal tovább értékesítik odakint, a helyi kereskedőknek. Az üzlet olyan jól megy, hogy már konkrét megbízásokat is kapnak, és ebből saját vagyonkájukat is gyarapíthatják. A játékosok a szerény kezdő lehetőségeik ügyes kihasználásával igyekeznek minél több megbízást szerezni és teljesíteni. Az akciók kivitelezéséhez néha kölcsön felvételére is rászorulnak, de szerencsére a helyi kereskedők kiszolgálása elegendő pénzt hoz ahhoz, hogy abból az adósság törlesztésén túl újabb befektetésekre is jusson. Aki a leghamarabb gyűjt össze 32 dirhemet, kiváltja a játék utolsó körét, de a győztes az lesz, aki végül a legnagyobb vagyonnal rendelkezik. Mindenkinek két opcionális akciója van körönként, és minden akciót mozgásnak kell megelőznie. A játékosok 1-3 lépést tehetnek bármilyen irányban, de körönként egyszer rábízhatják magukat a dobókockára. Ekkor azonban legfeljebb annyit léphetnek, amennyit dobtak. Minden mezőhöz tartozik egy akció: kölcsönt vehetnek fel a pénzváltónál, nemesfémet, drágaköveket vásárolhatnak, eladhatnak és elcserélhetnek a standoknál vagy pavilonoknál, de üzletelhetnek közvetlenül is a megpihenő utazókkal. Az udvar közepén azonban áll egy különleges szökőkút, amely bizonyos akciók során fordul egyet, és ez hatással lehet a játékos bevételére! A helyi kereskedők kisebb vagy nagyobb megbízásokat adnak. Ezek teljesítése nemcsak a játékosok jövedelmét növeli, de biztosítja a tartozásaik rendezését is, és értékes képességkártyákhoz juttatja őket, amelyek a játék folyamán - vagy a végén - változatos előnyöket nyújtanak. Érdemes minél több nagy értékű megbízást teljesíteni, ugyanis ezek gyűjtése további pontokat hoz a játék végén. A Caravanserai szórakoztató, kereskedős és erőforrás-menedzselős játék, amely bátran ajánlható családok számára is: szabályai könnyen tanulhatók, a szerencsefaktor enyhíthet a kezdők hátrányán, emellett erős kihívást jelent stratégiai és taktikai oldalon is.
