Pros & Cons
Pros
The components are high quality, the rulebook is clear and the gameplay is fast. Excite to combine it with eastern wonders.
Nice filler game between longer games. My 7-year-old niece loves having a game she can play “with the grown ups’. We are a big gaming family.
Easy to teach, fast to play, affordable and has a reletively good amount of replayability. This is easily our new favorite small-format game for when we have a spare 30 minutes to play. It is a game you can play several times without getting tired of ... Read More
This game is very similar to splendor if you have played that game. If you don't care for the spice merchant theme there is also a golem edition that is the same game with a theme of creating golems rather than trading spices.
Cons

Highlights
Quality
Its very easy to learn but the deck building engine is robust enough that one can play it multiple times with no loss of novelty.
The pieces and cards are all well designed and interesting.
This feel like unnecessary hidden/subtle info that might be missed and create extra work for the players.
Easy to learn, but with a lot of depth and replay ability.
Packaging/appearance
The box came busted up, but the game itself is very fun.
