Answer: Camel

There are 11 camel cards. These cards bear no value at all but are used in exchanging other goods. When a player gets camel cards, either because he initially was dealt with some, or when he decides to take them all he places them face down in front of him. This constitutes the player's herd.
7. In the game "Jaipur" each player is allowed to hold in his hand a specific number of cards. What wondrous number is it?

Answer: Take one camel and one good

You can take a single good from the table, provided that you do not already hold seven, and replace it with the top card from the deck.

Answer: Sell various goods at the same time

You are only allowed to sell one type of goods. You cannot mix and match. You exchange the number of cards that you sell by the tokens that are on the top of the pile. If you sell three, four or five cards you also get a corresponding bonus token. The value of the bonus token is between eight and ten when you sell five goods, between four and six if you sell four goods and between one and three if you sell three goods.
10. In the game "Jaipur" a round ends when which of the following occurs?

Answer: Three types of goods tokens are exhausted

When three of the stacks are depleted the game ends. This allows the players to strategically end the game at a point that is more suitable to them. The winner of the round is the player that has amassed the most rupees. There is an additional five rupee bonus for the player that has the largest herd of camels.

When the deck of cards is depleted the cards that were sold are shuffled and place down as the new deck.
