About the game

What is Dale of Merchants 3?

Dale of Merchants is a series of deck building games developed by Snowdale Design. The games are set in Daimyria, a world of animalfolks. Dale of Merchants 3 is a standalone game which introduces six new animalfolk decks. It can be played by itself and combined with other games from the Dale of Merchants series. Each deck is themed around different animalfolks with a different gameplay focus and mechanics. For example, Sharing Short-beaked Echidnas borrow cards from other players while Prepared Grizzled Tree-kangaroos are good at protecting their own valuables.
