Thames & Kosmos | 691479 | Targi: Two Nomadic Tribes Compete for Trade Routes | Competitive Strategy Game | 2-Players | Ages 12+

One to get you thinking. A great game for two people, it's good fun with great dynamics and doesn't take too long either.

Fantastic game with a great theme - despite it being composed entirely of cards and a few tokens etc. (no main board), it manages to elicit a good level of strategy from players as they fight for resources and actions. The theme is set in the Tuareg tribes which is well reflected in the gameplay and artwork. This is only for two players, but due to the compactness, it is a great way to take an in-depth away on holiday etc that could be played multiple times. Highly recommend!

Really enjoy Targi as a two player game, it's fun and just the right amount of competition. The rules are simple, but can be a bit much to take in at first reading, as with lots of games, but you'll definitely get it after playing it once.

It's a great strategy game for 2 players. My husband and I played together and we had a good quality time. If you liked Catan, you would be excited about this game.

Slightly complex to learn the placing rules but excellent once you have played it once. Few games are good for 2 players but this breaks the mould and has good replay-ability value.

Quick delivery and great quality product. We only used twice but we're keen to play again, it's a nice lockdown activity (other than watching tv).

Worker placement game for two. A good puzzle.

This is an excellent two player game. The mechanic is simple to learn but very deep. We think it's a very clever worker placement game. We've been playing it fairly constantly since it arrived.

Es muy bueno el juego, quizás un poco complejo de entender todas las cartas. Depende del idioma, ya que prácticamente cada carta es diferente, claro tienen imagenes, pero lo mejor es comprarlo si sabes inglés, si no, buscar una versión en español. De ahí en fuera, recomendado, es una competencia real!

It is so incredibly hard to find good 2 player games it drives me crazy! When I saw Targi pop up I was intrigued and quick to order it. It took us a while to understand with the instructions from the box but once we watched a YouTube video on it we quickly got it and began playing. It is honestly a lot of fun and there are so many things to consider if you want to win! My partner doesnt usually like to play boardgames but this one he thoroughly enjoyed. For some reason he keeps on winning.. but I love to play anyways! Must have for bored couples!

There is nothing to cost too high. Of course this game is good and have good reviews but its price is too much.

This has become one of my favourite 2 player games because it changes slightly each time it is set up based on how the cards get laid out. I hear the expansion is even more variable. Artwork is a bit hokey but the mechanics are a good intro to two player games that go a bit beyond simple cards.

Targi is a classic two player game from Thames & Kosmos that has finally been reprinted. Targi is an interesting mix of worker placement and action selection. Targi has a (random) map made up of cards wherein the edges are preset, but the middle spaces will change over the course of the game. Each player has three tribesman (workers). These workers will be used to trigger special actions/abilities and to gain resources and/or victory points over the course of the game. During the course of a game turn, players will take turns placing there tribesman along the EDGE of the map, and only the edges. Players cannot place their workers in a space taken up by another worker-even their own, and they cannot place a tribesman directly opposite of where another tribesman was placed. Then an imaginary line is drawn by each player's workers, and where those lines intersect on the center part of the board each player places one of his markers. There are usually two such spaces each turn. The two (intersected) spaces that are marked, plus the three spaces where their tribesman where placed around the edge of the map, will make up the available actions each player will do during their turn. The order in which each action is done is up to the player. The purpose being to gather as many resources and/or victory points as possible per action. Interestingly, as each action in the center of the map is taken, that space is REMOVED and REPLACED by another random map card! Which means the center of the board is always changing while the center stays the same! As you can see, Targi is a simple yet very strategic game. The placement of workers requires a lot of preplanning, The ever changing map means no two turns will ever be the same, so you have to be tactical as well as strategic. And being able to block the other player from certain spaces means the game has a 'take that' element which means you can never rest on your laurels. If you want a good, strategic and tactical two player game, GET TARGI! You won't be disappointed!
