Public Market is a spatial tile-laying game with bidding and engine-building elements. Players compete as fish mongers to gain the most prestige by collecting the most sought-after fish from various boats at dock, and then selling them to customers at their market stall.
Public Market features tile-laying as part of a larger medium-weight strategy game focused on timing and resource management. The bidding mechanic generates heightened tension and interaction. The engine-building on the customer cards is subtle, but allows you to explore many different paths to victory!
