Overview

Tinker Tailor is a role-picking and set-gathering card game for 2 to 6 players suitable either as a general family game or as a light 'filler' game. The aim of the game is to get the most points. Points are collected in the form of money cards or goods cards, and the more goods cards a player owns (up to a maximum of eight) of a given type, the greater the value of the cards. Players also get a bonus for collecting all five goods: Bread, Fish, Cloth, Wine and Gems. Each turn, each player selects one role that defines the action they can take. The players who make the best choices and uses their actions to the greatest advantage will win the game.
