Finish the game with the highest balance to win. Each round you roll the dice, read the markets, and trade — buy low, sell high, and don't forget the taxes and entry fees.

You roll two dice (2d6, total 2–12) every round. Your dice price is the total × 100 FCFA, and it decides what you can do at each market:

• ▸High roll → higher dice price → good for selling (the market pays more).
• ▸Low roll → lower dice price → good for buying (you pay less).

Each round a few markets are active on the board's edges. Every market trades one product at a fixed price, with a supply, a tax rate and a sell entry fee.

• ▸Products: 🍚 Cooked Rice · 🥘 Fufu · 🌽 Corn Flour · 🥜 Peanut Butter · 🐟 Smoked Fish
• ▸Tax is added on buys and taken from sells — a 10% tax on a 1,000 FCFA sale costs you 100 FCFA.
• ▸Selling in a market costs a fixed entry fee, paid no matter what happens.

Each player, in turn, picks an action for every active market:

• ▸⬇ Buy — plan to buy that product.
• ▸⬆ Sell — plan to sell it (only possible if you own some).
• ▸— Skip — do nothing there.

On the board, tap a market space to cycle Skip → Buy → Sell, or use the buttons in the centre. Bots finalize their own plans automatically.

Players act in dice-roll turn order (highest first). When it's your turn, the board's centre shows your dice and a prompt:

• ▸Buy: if your dice price ≥ the market price, you buy at the market price — cheapest sell orders first, then market supply. Quantity is limited by your dice roll, the stock, and your balance.
• ▸Sell: if your dice price ≤ the market price, the market buys your stock at your dice price (minus tax), after the entry fee.
• ▸If the condition isn't met, the action is skipped automatically.

Several humans can sit at the same table and share the screen. The turn ribbon above the board always shows whose turn it is: who has planned (✓), who's planning now (◌), and the action turn order with dice. AI bots fill the remaining seats and play on their own.

Which strategies can sit at the table depends on the difficulty: Easy gets a fixed roster of weak bots (you only pick the count), Medium the classic heuristics, Hard only the probability-aware traders. The number of opponents is tied to the level too — Easy seats 0–4, Medium 4–8, Hard 6–10 (more traders drain market supply, so bigger tables are harder). With two or more humans the limit is lifted.

• ▸Random — picks at random (baseline).
• ▸ConservativeTrader — only trades on very favorable conditions.
• ▸BuyLowSellHigh — hunts profit margins (classic arbitrage).
• ▸AggressiveBuyer — buys everything, hoards stock.
• ▸MarketSniper — targets high-supply, low-price markets.
• ▸ExpectedValue — buys/sells using the real 2d6 odds and expected value.
• ▸Arbitrageur — buys the cheap market, sells the expensive one for the same product.
• ▸Endgame — EV trading that liquidates before spoilage and adjusts risk by its chances of winning.

• ▸Corners = each player's home base (token + balance).
• ▸Edges = the active market spaces (icon, name, price).
• ▸Centre = the dice, the message, and the controls.
• ▸The active player gets a PLANNING / TRADING badge on their corner, and their token moves onto the market they're trading at.
