About Silk Road

From Bruno Faidutti´s website: The Silk Road is a kind of "pick up and deliver" game where all players are in the same caravan going east to west, from China to Europe. Each player tries to have the caravan go through the cities that fit him best, to make the best deals with the local traders, and to be the richest in the end.
