Description

The Faerie Market opens at dawn. There are many strange and wonderous items to be had in the markets, for a price, and I've instructed other apprentices in the market to trade with you as well. Return to me when you have the items and I shall give you other chores. Continue to serve well and I shall be mightily impressed. Be warned, Time passes strangely in Faerie, and Beware deals with the Fae.

As an apprentice to an absent-minded wizard in town, you've been sent to the strange and wonderous Faerie Markets to do some shopping. Trade for Magical items, use them to gain an advantage, and even make deals with the fairies themselves. Compete with other apprentices to bring back the goods, and beware deals with the Fae.

Fairy Market is a 2-4 player game in which you will trade goods with an ever-changing market, racing to complete lists for the Wizard. Strategize how to get the cards you need, without letting others know what you're after. Play cards to change the market, change your hand or even lock your opponents options, but beware, the market can be unpredictable.

Includes rules for either a lighter game or a more strategic "Timeless Realm" Variation.

Crab Battle! Games is a small group of game developers in Madison WI, with a focus on making games that are simple, accessable, and still have un-plumbed depths. Fairy Market is our first game to make it this far.

Enjoy!

Love this game! It brought out my competitive side but not in a vicious way. Directions were easy to follow and absolutely love the art.

Feels odd to review my own game but after many, many playtests, I think I can say objectively that I"ve had a blast. There are always engaging decisions to make, and the market can shift rapidly. G...
