Can you smuggle contraband into Nottingham without getting caught?

Sheriff of Nottingham (2nd Edition) is a hilarious bluffing, negotiation, and deduction board game where merchants attempt to bring goods into the city while one player takes on the role of the Sheriff, inspecting bags, accepting bribes, and trying to catch smugglers in the act.

The bustling market of Nottingham is filled with merchants hoping to make their fortunes. Most are transporting legal goods such as apples, bread, cheese, and chickens—but hidden among the honest wares may be valuable contraband. Each round, merchants pack their bags, make declarations about their goods, and try to convince the Sheriff they're telling the truth. The Sheriff must decide who to trust, who to inspect, and whether a tempting bribe is worth looking the other way.

Lying is encouraged, bribery is expected, and every conversation around the table becomes part of the game. Will you risk smuggling crossbows and exotic goods past the Sheriff, or play it safe and profit from legitimate trade? Every decision creates opportunities for negotiation, deception, and laughter.

The 2nd Edition supports up to 6 players straight out of the box and includes content inspired by the original game's expansions, creating the most complete version of Sheriff of Nottingham available.
