📖 About This Game
Players play the role of characters who are handling money and shopping. There are stores with products and paths leading around them on the board placed at the center of the table. Each player starts the game with three coins.
The game has unique movement mechanic - player rolls a die with icons, move their figurine along any possible path, and stop at the first space with the same icon. They collect as many coins as they passed along the way. Then they can reveal and buy products adjacent to their position. If the die lands on a shopping cart, they can buy any of the opened products or roll again.
Because the products have different prices, the players have to balance getting and spending their coins.
The game ends when a player has five products in their shopping cart. Scoring - if a product has the icon of the player’s character or a star, it is worth two points, otherwise it is only worth one point. The player with the most points wins.
The game has an advanced mode included, in which players can close certain stores to block other players.
