(GAME SUMMARY)
|
|
|
| Drake says: "In Through the Desert, two to five players each control a tribe of nomads vying for control of the desert. By establishing camel caravans and taking over oases, the players gain points as their tribes increase in power. Strategy is essential in deciding how and where to build your tribe's caravans. There is more than one way to gain points, and several ways to win."

(TIPS/COMMENTS)
|
|
|
| John says: "Through the Desert is very deceptive, with its simple rules, pastel-colored game pieces, and short playing time. However, this is a deep game of pure strategy, with no luck involved. Many people feel that it is reminiscent of Go. Through the Desert is part of the Knizia tile-laying trilogy (together with Tigris & Euphrates and Samurai)."
