What was life really like in colonial America? Made for Trade was designed to capture the essence of our country's formative years. Like American settlers, players will need to visit different shops to attain items they need by paying shillings or by trading. They'll learn what everyday life was like for ordinary citizens while practicing bartering and money management. A delightful lesson in history and economics and great for all ages! 2 to 6 players.

I ordered this game for my 7 year old daughter who is fascinated by Colonial America. Our famiy played it the day we received it in the mail and it was great fun! It's nice that there are 3 different levels of play. The first level was a bit too easy, but the 2nd and 3rd levels were challenging and interesting enough to hold everyone's attention.
I know we will play this for quite some time to come.
Just OK

While I like the overall concept of the game, my kids lost interest relatively quickly. Need more detail in the directions.

Our 5 year old son LOVED this game! Though we have only played the Tourist version of the game (still have 3 other versions to go), we loved the names of the characters (HE always wants to be Eliza Oglethorpe), all the objects you collect, that you travel throughout the town, and especially how you barter for objects and collect shillings. Really helped him understand Colonial exchange rates! ...and "indentured servitude." NB: Though the game says it is for 8 - 12 year olds onwards, our little boy learned to read very early on, and LOVES reading about Colonial tools, so this was right up his alley. VERY gladSanta brought this,a nd know he will love playing it with his schoolmates.

My nine year old son had a friend recommend this game and he loves it. From the time he opened the box to set it up (which was fun), to the games he is playing with our family, it's been great.
