Welcome to the thrilling age of the Medici family, where you are a shrewd buyer for a powerful merchant house! Each day, you head to the wholesale market with one goal: to acquire the finest cloth, exotic spices, grain from distant fields, colorful dyes, lush furs, and, rarely, gold from mines across the waters.
Medici is an engaging auction game that unfolds over three days (rounds). As seafaring traders, your mission is to present goods for auction and load them onto your ships. At the end of each day, you'll be rewarded with florins (money) for the value of your cargo. But be extremely careful – the money you use to bid is also your end-game points!
Dive into the rich atmosphere of Renaissance trade, where every move is crucial to your financial dominance. Every auction is a test of your strategy and estimation. Will you bid aggressively for valuable goods, or will you wait for the perfect opportunity? Manage your florins wisely. Spend too much, and you might not have enough to win. Hold onto too much, and you'll miss out on valuable goods. With only three rounds, the game is quick and keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.
Are you ready to outwit your rivals, build an empire of wealth, and prove you're the best merchant in the age of Medici?
