To begin the play, set up eight character tiles on the table, all of which have different skills. The character tiles are double-sided with different characters on each side, so 16 characters in total for the huge amount of combinations. Goods cards have a value from 1 to 10, with only one card with value 1 and ten cards with value 10. On your turn:
Move the "camel" on the current character tile to the next tile. If you want to move more, pay coins to move further.

What the community says about Merchants of Dunhuang
Es un filler de mayorías entretenido con un notable componente de azar que funciona bien a 3 y 4 jugadores. La producción es buena (aunque tampoco es una locura). Me gustaría destacar de él su sistema de doble mayoría (en mano y en la tienda) que le da cierto grado táctico para combatir esa caprichosa aleatoriedad. Recomiendo hacerse con él si lo encontráis de oferta por poquito dinero.
Le voy a echar muuuchas partidas
