The busy market in Nottingham is filled with goods from across the kingdom. Most of it is completely legal, but Prince John wants to be absolutely sure that no smuggled goods are being sold. He has tasked the sheriff with inspecting the merchants' goods and looking for illegal items. The sheriff is shrewd but is also open to accepting bribes to look the other way. Which merchant will end up getting the best goods through and thus make the largest profit at the market stalls?
In Sheriff of Nottingham, players take turns being the sheriff, on the lookout for smuggled goods, while the merchants try to stock their stalls with the best items. The sheriff can inspect any bag they wish, but they must be careful, as they will have to pay a fine if they find out that the merchants are telling the truth.
This updated edition includes revised rules as well as expansions like 6th Merchant, Black Market, and Sheriff's Deputies.
