Description

The Holzbox edition was limited to 500 copies. It contained E1/E2 Company Track which was a mini-expansion that was exclusive to this limited edition and was never released by itself. Company E1 allows investing players to interact with discarded card. Company E2 allows investing players to permanently have diamond merchants and bonus mining icons for the company. In Mombasa, players acquire shares of chartered companies based in Mombasa, Cape Town, Saint-Louis, and Cairo and propagate trading posts of these companies throughout the African continent in order to earn the most money. Mombasa features a unique, rotating-display hand-mechanism that drives game play. Each round players choose action cards from their hand, then reveal them simultaneously and carry out the actions. These cards are then placed in a discard pile, and the previously played cards recovered for the subsequent round. Each company has a double-sided company track, so games will vary quite a lot based on which tracks are revealed and at which companies they are placed.
