Description Description

Medici: The Card Game is a new title by Reiner Knizia that captures the setting and spirit of the classic Medici, without the auction mechanism. In 15th century Florence, players seek to obtain the most valuable goods for trading ships by drawing 1 to 3 cards from a common deck each turn. After drawing, the active player must take the last drawn card and may choose one or both of the two previous cards, if available. They then load these goods cards onto their ship. Cards not taken remain available for subsequent players. When the ship is full (seven cards with two players, five cards with 3-6 players), the player is out of the round and scores for the day. Points are earned for the hold's value and for the number of goods of each type stored in the warehouse. The merchant with the highest earnings over three days wins. Some cards do not take up space on ships; others contribute to the hold's value but cannot be stored in the warehouse.
