About the Game

Jaipur is a 2 player, trading card game where you and your opponent are traders and are trying to make the most money, buying and selling resources from the market. Resources initially sell for a larger amount and start to yield lesser money as more of them get sold in the market.

However not all resources have the same availability and selling price along with Rare Resources having the added constraint of needing to be sold in a group of atleast 2 cards at a time.

In the game of Jaipur, players have to strike a balance between trying to trade rarer resources which sell for more(such as Gold, Diamond and Silver) and the more abundant resources which sell for less(Leather, Spices and Silk).

For a more comprehensive explanation of the rules, watch the game guide here:

You can also find help within the Udaipur Website under Game Help The only departure from the original rules in Udaipur is the removal of the Seal of Excellence tokens to simplify and shorten the game.
