Unlike in other cultures, the desert Tuareg men, known as Targi, cover their faces whereas women of the tribe do not wear veils. They run the household and they have the last word at home in the tents. Different families are divided into tribes, headed by the ‘Imascheren’ (or nobles). As leader of a Tuareg tribe, players trade goods from near (such as dates and salt) and far (like pepper), in order to obtain gold and other benefits, and enlarge their family. In each round there new offerings are made. Cards are a means to an end, in order to obtain the popular tribe cards.
Targi is a two player game in which players assume the role of leaders of two Tuareg tribes who want their tribe to gain as much prestige and wealth as possible. The goal: make it to the end of the game while handling your tribes and your trades to gain the most victory points.
