From Designer Sergio Halaban, the mind that brought you Sheriff of Nottingham!

In Matryoshka, players are collectors of Russian nesting dolls who have met to exchange their dolls to form the most valuable collection. Throughout the game, players display portions of their collection to show (or not show) their opponents what they're looking for and then each player has the opportunity to perform a hidden trade with their opponents. Through trading, set collection, hand management, and a bit of clever negotiation, the player who can form the most valuable collection by the end of the game will be the winner.
