How it plays

Build a productive farm, support your growing family, and earn points from crops, animals, pastures, rooms, and improvements while avoiding empty areas. On your turn, place one family member on an unoccupied action space to gather resources, build, sow, acquire animals, improve your farm, or expand your family. After 14 rounds and periodic harvests requiring food, total points determine the winner.

Full publisher description

Updated and streamlined for a new generation of players, Agricola , the award-winning and highly acclaimed game by Uwe Rosenberg, features a revised rulebook and gameplay, wood pieces and components, and a card selection from the base game as well as its expansions, revised and updated for this edition. The 17th century was not an easy time to be a farmer. 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.
