📖 About This Game
Get ready for an electrifying, time-traveling escapade with Sharjah: The Board Game! Be transported to the bustling heart of Sharjah's Central Souq in 1978, where the race is on to become the ultimate merchant tycoon! Dive into a cunning strategy and high-stakes objective gave that thrusts you into the race to be Sharjah's wealthiest merchant. On the illustrated game board, Sharjah's Central Souq comes alive, beckoning players to harness dazzling Dirhams Cards, deploy game-changing Action Cards, and pursue glory with rewarding Objective Cards, crafting their unparalleled trading empire. Will you rise above the competition to become the richest merchant in Sharjah?
Players acquire, position, and remove stores, trying to dominate the souk board. Once the last empty souk space has been filled, the game ends and points are tallied for completing objectives and buying stores. The person with the highest number of points wins - but ties can also happen.
