Timbuktu*
Players take on the role of caravan leaders, with the number of camels in each caravan determined by the number of players. The goal is to transport goods from the starting point to Timbuktu while managing to protect them from thieves who attack at night. As players receive various clues about the thefts along the journey, they must deduce the situation and relocate camels to ensure that valuable goods are safely delivered to their final destination.
