Produktbeschreibung
In The Farming Game, you develop your part-time farm by planting different crops (wheat, hay, cherries) and leasing additional cattle grazing rights, in the hopes that any given resource will pay out big so that you can afford to quit your day job and become a full-time farmer.
However, with each harvest season comes the potential for price fluctuations and additional costs of doing business (fertilizer, equipment breakdowns, replanting, labor problems, etc.).
The first player who reaches a total net worth of $250,000 wins the game.
More than 350,000 copies of The Farming Game ("The Game Invented on the Seat of a Tractor") have been sold, and this 20th-anniversary edition introduces a new generation to the joys of muck and milking. Every player starts the game with 20 inherited acres and moves through the months (i.e., around the board) trying to build the farm into an independent, successful concern that will feed the whole family. A fun game, it also has a serious, educational side--having been invented by George Rohrbacher, a farmer in Washington State's Yakima Valley, who thought it up while trying to figure out how to make enough cash to hang on to his family farm. Up to six players, ages 10 to adult.
Man beginnt mit 20 Acre Land, einem Kredit bei der Bank, einem Job in der Stadt und Hoffnung auf Selbständigkeit... doch wird man die richtigen Entscheidungen treffen? Vieh oder Getreide? Ein größerer Obstgarten? Für 1-6 Spieler von 6 Jahren an aufwärts. |
