Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

You've wanted it for years. Container is BACK!

3-5 Players | 60 min | Ages 12+

Build factories, produce containers, set prices, negotiate with your rivals, and sail across the sea to trade. Obviously, buy low, sell high. But, can you make it happen?

Container is an extremely coveted game. Long out of print and selling for hundreds on the secondary market, the new version is here and more affordable than ever.

But, it's not just affordable. It's the definitive Container experience. With modern production, beautiful components, and delightful artwork that a game of this calibre deserves, it's poised to become your favourite game (before you've ever even played it).
