About this board game

Merchants of Muziris is a fast set-collection game for 2–4 players that plays in about 30 minutes. Set in the bustling port markets of Muziris, it challenges merchants to select valuable goods, use them wisely, and build a fortune.

On each turn, players use their actions to choose goods from the market. These goods can be played for their abilities or combined into sets that provide coins, creating a flexible multi-use system that is easy to learn while offering meaningful choices.

No two games need to unfold in quite the same way. Variable characters give players different options to consider, while market condition cards shape the market and determine how the game will end. Adapting to these changing circumstances is central to making the most of every opportunity.

  • Set collection: Combine market goods into sets for coins.
  • Multi-use actions: Select goods to play for abilities or build valuable combinations.
  • Variable play: Characters and market condition cards alter the game from one session to the next.

With its accessible rules, changing market conditions, and compact play time, Merchants of Muziris offers a lively game of planning and adaptation. Choose when to use goods for their abilities, when to gather sets, and how to respond as the market’s conclusion takes shape.
