In Merv The Heart of the Silk Road you stand in the beating heart of the Silk Road. This is where traders, money and power come together in the most beautiful city in the world. You try to pull as much of that wealth as you can to your own side. You do that with cunning moves at court, generous gifts to the great mosque and clever trade deals at just the right moment. But outside the city walls, danger is getting closer. The Mongols are approaching and the city needs strong walls. If you help build them, you give up chances to grow bigger and more powerful yourself. If you do nothing, you go down along with the city. Every choice counts and every misstep can cost you dearly. This game asks for sharp thinking and good timing. Whether you play with four people at the table or take on the solo mode, you always face tough decisions. Will you go down in history as a mighty ruler, or quietly fade into oblivion?
