The world is getting more and more connected. As an owner of a distribution company, it is up to you to make your company grow and deliver goods all over the world.

The Silk Route is a flip and write game where players have a distribution company. Deliver the appropriate goods to different cities and squares inside these cities, by drawing posts of your own. Right after, draw a poliomino in your company panel to represent the experience you got with each transaction.

Eventually, squares will have all their necessities covered. It's the moment to see how your goods increase their value! Use these values to score more points than any other player and have the most prestigious company by the end of the game!
