Jaipur
₹1,999.00
Jaipur is a highly rated quick & light 2 player game for ages 12 and above that plays in about 30 minutes. It is one of the top rated family games.
You are one of the two most powerful traders in the city of Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan, but that’s not enough for you because only the merchant with two “seals of excellence” will have the privilege of being invited to the Maharaja’s court. You are therefore going to have to do better than your direct competitor by buying, exchanging, and selling at better prices, all while keeping an eye on both your camel herds.

Description
Jaipur is a fast-paced card game, a blend of tactics, risk and luck. On your turn, you can either take or sell cards. If you take cards, you have to choose between taking all the camels, taking one card from the market, or swapping 2-5 cards between the market and your cards.
If you sell cards, you get to sell only one type of good, and you receive as many chips for that good as the number of cards you sold. The chips’ values decrease as the game progresses, so you’d better hurry! On the other hand, you receive increasingly high rewards for selling three, four, or five cards of the same good at a time, so you’d better wait!
You can’t sell camels, but they’re paramount for trading and they’re also worth a little something at the end of the round, enough sometimes to secure the win, so you have to use them smartly.

Artwork: Artwork of the game is a feast for the eyes. Beautiful pieces of coins and the cards are also pretty beautiful and of good quality.
Gameplay: Certainly one of the best two player games, if not the best, two player games of all time. I mean yes there is Lost cities, Pandemic, Ticket to ride, The game etc etc, but, this one is a breeze. Easy to set up, easy to explain to someone who is new to board/card games and one round of play hardly lasts 10-20 minutes. This can’t be the main game if you are planning to have a game night, but, this can certainly be one of the best filler games.

Great game that checks all the boxes.
Easy to explain, fun to play, quick setup & play.
Most definitely an essential pickup.
Great as an amuse-bouche before a long day of board gaming, or as a snack in between board games.
