Every 29 days, a mysterious market comes to life in the glow of the full moon.
You are gifted in the craft of jewelry making and want to use your skilled hands and keen eye to select the finest stones to make magnificently decorated gold chains. Only those who produce the most beautiful and ornate necklaces will win the favor of the emperor and receive a permanent position at his magnificent court.
Welcome to the Moonlight Market!

In each round, you will first use cards to bid with your competitors at the market for the gemstones you need for your jewelry. You will then build your acquired gems into the most valuable necklaces possible in order to gain as many reputation points as possible at the end. But be careful, the chains on this market may only consist of a maximum of 3 chain links!
Moonlight Market ends after 4 rounds. The player who has collected the most reputation will be rewarded with a permanent position at the emperor's court and wins the game.
