ABOUT THE GAME
Among the many reasons Oaxaca (pronounced WA-HA-KA) is well known are its exquisite handicrafts. Drawing upon generations of tradition, as well as vast quantities of raw materials, many artists within this state in Southern Mexico dedicate their lives to perfecting their craft.
In Oaxaca: Crafts of a Culture, you and up to three friends roll dice, gather cards, turn those cards into works of art, and then display them in your Market Stall! Will you reach a distinguished position with your exquisite craftsmanship, or are your crafts common for the culture?
