One of our best selling series. A vicious 2 player game that will have you returning again and again.

 

Targi

£18.50 - Buy the game here!

A Targi is a male member of the Tuareg people, who live in the Sahara desert. As tribe leader, you will be trading dates, salt, and pepper to obtain coveted gold coins and advantages.

In the game, the desert is a five-by-five grid of cards. Position your Targi figures on the cards that border the desert. You carry out the actions of those cards as well as the cards at the crossroads between them. If you don’t go to the merchant, you won’t be able to trade — and even worse, your opponent will. Or maybe a caravan will bring the merchandise you desire. There are many choices to consider. But don’t wait too long, the desert is harsh and you might miss an opportunity to make a deal.

In the next round, a completely different set of offerings will be on the table. The goods cards are the means to the end of getting highly desired tribe cards. These in turn bring advantages during the game and victory points at the end. You can win only if you plan shrewdly and always keep some gold in your pocket.

Targi: The Expansion

£18.50 - Buy the expansion here!

In this expansion, the original gameplay is both expanded and improved with new tribe cards, border cards, sand dune cards, water tokens, and a special Targia pawn — all of which combine to make a great game even better.

The Targia presents an exciting twist to the original game as she moves opposite the robber and uses her abilities to upgrade the effects of the border cards. The addition of water tokens presents a host of refreshing new possibilities to the game, while the new sand dune cards allow a Targi to gain a unique advantage if they travel to an outlying sand dune — but they may miss a valuable action in the centre play area as a result! The player with the most victory points at the end of the game is the winner.
