Strategy
Bazaar is a village and Peddler variant that lends itself to use in engines in the same way as other villages, with some economy as an added benefit. It’s best added to your engine as soon as you have some deck control and need more terminal space, typically in the early midgame, although its somewhat high price compared to other villages may make this more difficult than usual.
This high price is the main downside of Bazaar. At , it competes with many other powerful Action cards, has a much higher opportunity cost than cheaper villages, and cannot be gained by most Workshop variants. If it is the only available village, assembling an engine is more expensive and thus slower than usual, especially if the available draw card also costs . Therefore, it works best with cheaper components for draw such as Smithy. Cost reduction (e.g. Quarry) or suitable gainers (e.g. Vampire or Altar) make Bazaar significantly easier to acquire, and therefore more attractive.
The extra that Bazaar generates is usually secondary to the village effect, as + from a card is relatively weak, but it does have a couple of beneficial effects. As with all Peddler variants, providing payload without adding any stop cards means you typically need less draw. Additionally, because you can simultaneously add your village effect and some payload, building can be slightly faster with Bazaar.
