Evrikus Publishing House announced that the strategic board game “Dabbawala,” designed for 2–4 players, is now available for purchase. It can currently be bought for 3778–4240 rubles at various locations.
The goal of the players is to collect multi-colored dabbawalas, traditional Indian food containers, in different areas of the metropolis of Mumbai and deliver them, earning as many tip points as possible.
Players will need to move the delivery person's figure across the board, pick up dabbawala tokens of different shapes, and place them on their vehicle, trying to efficiently and compactly fit all orders, and also use cards to set the most favorable tip amount for dabbawalas of each color.
Players can choose from four different vehicle tablets: a bicycle with a trailer and a cart with a capacity of 9 cells, and a box and a wheelbarrow with a capacity of 6 cells. Each vehicle offers a unique cell arrangement and its own path to victory.
Additionally, the box contains two small expansions that will help diversify the gameplay after a few rounds. The rules also include several alternative rules, for example, for a longer game or for a two-player game with an imaginary third player.
The “Dabbawala” trailer can be viewed on the YouTube channel of Queen Games publishing house.
