If you think the time is right you begin your dangerous way from the Bavarian Woods to the equally dark Bohemian Forests in order to reach the Czech capitol of Prag the first and to achieve the highest prices for your salt.

The game is of outstanding component quality.
A wooden box, where the lid acts as one of 6 wooden game boards, 3 different sorts of metal coins, real crystals, small salt cans and other heavy metal game pieces (horseshoes, pawns etc.)are a joy to behold.
