Container is a strategic economic board game where you produce, price, and ship goods in a closed market.

For 3–5 players, it's all about building factories, manufacturing containers, setting your own prices, and negotiating shrewdly with your opponents. You ship goods across the sea to the island where they are auctioned off – and try to understand what your opponents truly value most. Since each player has secret value cards, it's crucial to read the market correctly and time your deals perfectly.

The rules are easy to learn, but the depth lies in the economic simulation and the interaction between players. With a playing time of 45–90 minutes and a tight, closed economy where money is scarce, Container offers intense trading, bidding, and clever speculation.
