About Kilim

The Sultan asked the weavers of the city to create their finest work for him, an exceptional Kilim! The Person who weaves the most beautiful one will be become the High Weaver of the Sultanate. An Honor and a promise of fortune that you cannot ignore. All you have to do is go to the market, buy the best carpets and assemble them to make a Kilim worthy of the Sultan! In order to weave your Kilim, you will have to participate in the market auctions to get carpets. They have different patterns that can influence the final score. Since you are all in competition, you may want the same carpet, so you will have to offer the best deal possible without going broke. Once you have acquired a carpet tile, you will place it in front of you to compose your work. After 3 days, the Kilim will be judged by the Sultan according to the way they have been designed. The one who has designed the best masterpiece will be named High Weaver of the Sultanate! The game ends when all the tiles are bought and placed (after three rounds) and build in the Kilims of the players. Victory Points are given for an rectangular shape of the carpet, for the use of patterns, for the biggest groups of patterns, for the player with most tiles of a pattern - and you loose points if you have open/visible "damaged" carpet parts.
