Publisher's Description of Agricola Game

The 17th Century Was Not an Easy Time to be a Farmer.

The Agricola base game is a revised edition of Uwe Rosenberg's
celebrated classic. The game is designed for 1-4 players, features
improved all-wood components and a card selection from the
base game as well as its expansions, revised and updated for
this edition.

Players begin the game with two family members and can grow
their families over the course of the game. This allows them more
actions but remember you have to grow more food to feed your
family as it grows!

Feeding your family is a special kind of challenge and players will plant grain and vegetables while
supplementing their food supply with sheep, wild boar and cattle. Guide your family to wealth, health
and prosperity and you will win the game!

Category Description for Agricola Game

You have a family to take care of, animals to raise, and you need to make sure your property is nicer than your neighbors'... It's not easy being a peasant! This popular management game's goal is to balance your family's needs with improving your farm. Players begin with only two family members on a small farm. Each family member can take an action to collect resources, build fences, improve the family home, and more - but there's only so much time before harvest! Once the harvest is brought in (assuming there's enough food to go around), another season begins, and the cycle continues. At the end, the player who best managed his or her family and farm wins. One of the most popular "Euro" games of the last decade, Agricola has won over a dozen awards from across the U.S. and Europe.
