Visby

Visby is a short, but challenging game. Each player has an identical set of eight cards, each of them with a special effect.

At the beginning of a round, the common supply on the board becomes more attractive by adding seals (victory points) and wares and by improving the ratio to change wares into seals. All players choose one card from their hand simultaneously and place it face down in front of them (two cards in a two- or three-player game). Then the cards are revealed and the effects become active:

Knights and Troops take victory points;

Blacksmith gets wares for each Knight/Troops played by other players;

Ships and Fleets get wares; Tollkeeper gets seals for ships and fleets;

Merchant changes wares into seals;
