Elke beurt voert de speler een van de vier acties uit: Breng een handelsroute tot stand (door een marktkaart te nemen) Doe een ruil of oogst specerijen (door een kaart uit de hand te spelen) Vervul een vraag (door te voldoen aan de eisen van een overwinningspuntkaart en het te claimen) Rust (door alle kaarten die je gespeeld hebt in je hand te nemen) De laatste ronde wordt geactiveerd zodra een speler zijn vijfde overwinningspuntkaart heeft geclaimd, dan wint degene die de meeste overwinningspunten heeft.
