Overview
In Jambo, you and your opponent become traders in an exotic marketplace, vying to acquire valuable goods and complete lucrative deals. Each turn, you have a limited number of action points to spend on various actions, such as drawing cards, purchasing goods like spices and hides, selling those goods at the market, or playing special character cards that grant unique abilities.
Careful hand management is crucial as you balance building your inventory with the need to efficiently sell your wares at the right time to maximize your profits. The player who accumulates the most wealth by strategically buying and selling goods wins the game, proving their business acumen in this vibrant trading environment.
