About the Game

In Merchants of Silk Road (絲路商人), players lay out all of the tiles in a single, snaking line, with the tiles being 1-6 squares large (in various sizes from 1x1 to 2x3). Each player has an individual game board with 24 empty squares on it in a 4x6 grid.

On a turn, the player whose camel is at the back of the line rolls a die. This player either accepts this result, moves their camel forward this many spaces on the path, and takes the tile their camel would land on and places it in their grid OR passes; if the player passes, then the player whose camel is next to last can take this die roll instead, with the original player rolling the die again.

Whoever first fills their grid wins!
