Die Weinhändler (2000)

About this game

from RULES TRANSLATION: You travel up and down the Loire with your wheel steamer. By transporting passengers and wine barrels, you fill your cash register with Louis d'Or, the currency of the time. The more stokers you hire, the further your ship travels. The more boatswains you have, the better you can assert yourself against your rivals if you head for a mooring at the shore. The goal of the game is, by transporting passengers and wine barrels, to acquire the most Louis d'Or.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.8/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
