"Asante" means "thank you" in Swahili, and it's the word an African merchant will say once you've struck a good deal. If you prove your trading skills, you might just end the game with "Asante" on your lips too.

Asante is an economic card game for two players set in an African marketplace. Players compete to trade various goods as effectively as possible. On market days, you can also acquire otherwise unavailable commodities from individuals with special skills. You can also visit one of fifteen sacred sites that grant you unique abilities.

You can combine Asante with the game Jambo and its expansions to create a truly bustling market.

The game is in English.
