{"product_id":"rajas-of-the-ganges","title":"Rajas of the Ganges","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe designer couple of Inka and Markus Brand are a formidable duo. They have designed not only a large number of games but also games in a wide range of themes, from the Exit Games to legacy game, The Rise of Queensdale. Rajas of the Ganges is more of a standard 'Euro' game with some neat twists in gameplay to make it stand out from the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs in most games of this ilk the theme isn't hugely apparent in the gameplay, although it is richly illustrated throughout the components. The game provides a couple of variants in a basic and advanced mode, for most players advanced will offer the most rewarding experience but the basic mode is fantastic too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Rajas of the Ganges you will be using dice and wooden meeples to take actions. Every time you gain a dice in the game you must roll it and its number and colour will dictate, to an extent, what actions you can then take. Using these dice you will place out your meeples on the board and take various actions. You will need to make sure you spend some of these gaining more dice as although your meeples will return to you, spent dice are gone!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eActions include buying tiles to place on your own player board, earning rewards, travelling up the river, using karma to mitigate dice and more. What is really clever about Rajas, and sets it apart from the competition, is the scoring. There are two scoring tracks and you start on opposite ends of each. A player's markers passing each other on the tracks triggers the end game and often leads to a win for that player. While this means actually scores are usually quite low, it makes for varied and interesting games where some people go all in on one scoring type or the other, while others take a balanced approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRajas of the Ganges is a deep, interesting game with an excellent twist in scoring that provides lots of fun and satisfying gameplay!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayer Count: 2-4\u003cbr\u003e\nTime: 45-75 Minutes\u003cbr\u003e\nAge: 12+\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Huch!","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56050122654074,"sku":"ZBG-HUT879783","price":37.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9970\/8282\/files\/Rajas-of-the-Ganges.jpg?v=1760984904","url":"https:\/\/zatu.com\/products\/rajas-of-the-ganges","provider":"Zatu Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
