Asante is a two-player game set in the world of
Jambo and
Waka Waka
with the same designer and artist as those games: Rüdiger Dorn and
Michael Menzel. The players are dealers in an African marketplace,
buying and selling furs, silk, jewelry, fruits, tea and salt in order to
make the most money possible. During market day, they meet individuals
with special abilities who can make deals not otherwise available; a
player can also cause havoc for the opponent by loosing animals on his
stand. If you visit one of the fifteen holy sites, you can take
advantage of the special powers at those locations in addition to your
normal five actions.
Asante can be played together with Jambo or its expansions to create a marketplace with even more activity among its stalls!
