Sort the tokens by goods type.

Put the camel token next to the bonus tokens.

Set up the tokens as shown in the above illustration.

Put the 3 Seals of Excellence where the players can get at them.

Attention

Players may never have more than 7 cards in their hand at the end of their turn.

Sell Cards

To sell cards, choose one type of good and discard as many cards of that type as you like onto the discard pile. Each sale earns goods tokens and, if the sale is big enough, a bonus.

A sale is carried out in 3 steps.

Jaipur Game Rules

Sell as many cards as you want, placing them face up on the discard pile.

Jaipur Game Rules

Take as many tokens as cards discarded (starting with the «top» of the corresponding row, that is, starting with the highest values).
Stack the tokens in front of you.

Jaipur Game Rules

If you sell 3 or more cards, take the corresponding bonus token.

NB: the value of a bonus is not known until it is drawn. For 3 cards sold, it will be 1, 2 or 3 rupees. For 4 cards sold, it will be 4, 5 or 6 rupees and for 5 cards sold, it will be 8, 9 or 10 rupees. Unlike the goods tokens, the rupee value of the bonus token is only printed on the back (hence the question marks on the front).

Restrictions during a sale

When selling the 3 most expensive goods (diamonds, gold and silver), the sale must include a minimum of 2 cards. (This rule applies even if there is only one goods token of a given type left).

Reminder

You can only sell one goods type each round, never more.

End of a round

A round ends immediately if:

  • 3 types of goods token are depleted Jaipur Game Rules
  • or there are no cards left in the draw pile when trying to fill the market. Jaipur Game Rules

If neither player has 2 Seals of Excellence yet, set up the game again from the beginning and play a new round. The player who lost the previous round starts.
