Kashgar - traders of the Silk Road (Toys)

Customer Review

Shortly before the exhibition game in 2013 in Essen appeared with Kashgar a game that promised an open deck building mechanism. As it does now.

Gameplay
Each player starts with three caravans, represented by 3 patriarchs. These patriarchs can drag two characters, while sorting themselves and the drawn character to the end of their caravan. On a table, each player manages his own, current inventory of spices, mules and gold. By playing characters of the first character of each caravan can be used for changes of this inventory. In addition there are special buyers characters, can meet (and that's the point) instructions booklet jobs. To fulfill the orders spices, gold and mules are required. The player who first reaches 25 victory points wins the game.

Feel
Kashgar plays very smoothly. Once you're on the train, to choose one of three characters of which lie in the respective front caravan. With a few characters can be on the players influence. An annoyance factor, there is hardly. As the game from many varied characters and one is his game tactics can assemble as the game itself only, every game is different and is therefore very varied. Thematically although sometimes one wonders what a barmaid has no place in a caravan, but overall the issue yet implemented consistent.

Playing time
The game lasts loud box 60 minutes. That is certainly true for the first few games. Knowing Once the different cards, so a match will remain significantly lower. Experienced players will need no more than 30 minutes.

Playing tactics
One of the luck factor appears high, especially in the first few games. The Patriarch provides two new maps. I pick them one for the caravan, and put the other off. I prefer not so good I have no chance? That is not right. Firstly, the matriarch (the Flipped Patriarch) can selectively take cards from the discard pile, the other bid farewell function and adjusting the tactics enough options. The more matches you make the clearer it becomes apparent what game depth provides Kashgar.

Conclusion
The mechanism is new and unverbaucht. The game is fast, balanced, varied and almost always exciting.
Endings are often very scarce and may even tilt. The game material is high quality, the class drawings.
Even the introduction to the game is easy. The rules memorize quickly.
And it makes a lot of fun.
