Small easy to understand game that plays quickly. Very tactical. Plays with 2-3 but better with 4-6.

Medici Board Game
Medici is the board game that started it all. In three rounds, merchants bid on goods at auction and load the won lots onto ships. The florins earned are both money and victory points, making every choice strategically important.

Medici is the board game that started it all. Released in 1995, it was nominated for the Spiel des Jahres. In three rounds, merchants bid on goods at auction and load the won lots onto ships. They receive florins based on the cargo: money they can use to buy goods in subsequent turns. Be careful: florins are also victory points.

Plays fast, lots of tricky choices, excellent choice anytime, and my preferred 5-player game.
My favorite game. It's a game that I love introducing to new players as well as competing with those more experienced. In the first act, you're trying to decide what to commit to. In the second, it's about how you're going to pull ahead in the lanes you've chosen without losing sight of the bottom line. In the third, every card flip is so consequential as who wants what is so crystal clear. It's such a fun arc and never fails to put a smile on my face.
Medici is the perfect game in my opinion. Consistent playtime, highly interactive, dynamic, few rules, full of tension and engaging on every single turn.
An outstanding bartering game that is charged with a whiff of push-your-luck. Plays great at all player counts 3 or more, and will really drag in anyone with a competitive streak.
