MarraCash is an auction and bargaining board game for three or four players, designed by Stefan Dorra and published by Kosmos in 1996. The players are merchants in the winding alleys of an oriental bazaar who bid for shops. Coloured groups of tourists then move through the town, and each tourist enters a shop of its own colour, bringing money to the owner. On a turn a player holds auctions, moves tourists, or does one of each, and a player also earns from steering tourists into any shop, including a rival's, so players often help each other and negotiate. A game takes about an hour and suits players from about twelve years old.
