Tricky Traders Unboxing

Watch “Tricky Traders Unboxing,” a board game unboxing for Tricky Traders from ThisBoardGameLife on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by ThisBoardGameLife on YouTube:

Rob cracks open the box for Tricky Traders, a brand new two-player game from Pegasus Spiele, and walks through everything inside — from the rulebook and market stall boards to the chunky wooden dice, and a whole pile of meeples. He also shares a quick tip for keeping the box organized once everything is punched out. In Tricky Traders, two rival trade guilds battle for control of a bustling marketplace over three market days. Each player has a secret stall they want to boost to fame and another they want to sabotage, using influence cards to manipulate customers, rats, and colorful characters like the Pied Piper and the Saboteur. Designed by Colin Dömer with art by Dennis Lohausen, it plays in 20–40 minutes and is all about outsmarting your opponent while keeping your true intentions hidden. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/449978/tricky-traders

About Tricky Traders, from BoardGameGeek:

The stalls are set up, and the first customers are already admiring the extensive range of products on offer. But they have no idea what‘s going on behind the scenes! As two rivaling trade guilds, you compete for influence over the marketplace, trying to improve the reputation of your own stalls, while getting rid of the unwanted competition. You and your opponent each have 2 goals: To support 1 market stall (the more fame, the better) and to ruin 1 market stall (the less fame, the better). The game takes place over 3 market days, with each day split into Morning, Noon and Evening. At each time of day, you play 2 influence cards to influence customers, rats and characters. At the end of each market day, each market stall will gain fame depending on how many customers and rats are at the stall along with which characters are also present. The player who best succeeds in both pursuing their own goals and thwarting those of their opponent will be victorious. -description from the publisher
