Jatra

In Jatra, you and your fellow players take on the role of siblings dropped off at a fair, each eager to make the most of the day in your own way. Your goal is to complete sets - eating food, going on rides, watching spectacles, and winning toys, all before the others do. But childhood never follows a plan. Memories resurface at unexpected times, disrupting your progress, changing how you play, and forcing you to adapt. Designed for 3–5 players, Jatra unfolds over five distinct stages, each altering what you're trying to achieve and how memory cards affect you. What feels overwhelming early on slowly becomes manageable, even familiar. Strategies that worked before may no longer apply. Just like growing up, the game changes while you're busy playing it. Every turn is a small decision with emotional weight. Do you push ahead and complete a set, or slow down to deal with a memory that could trip you up later? Do you take a risk now, or play it safe and watch someone else surge ahead? Jatra balances competition with co-operation; there's always tension at the table, but never without warmth. —description from the publisher
