It's time for another month of Uwe Rosenberg games! I own enough of his games to devote 2 months per year to playing them at Chewsday Challenge, so I've picked March and September since many of his games have to do with the changing of seasons and planting and harvesting. They're also six months apart, and his birthday is in March, so I think it makes sense. Anyway, I'll start off with one of the newest titles in his catalog...

GAME: Agricola
TEACHER: Derek C.

DURATION: 120-150 min.
# OF PLAYERS: 2-5 players

This was the first game I ever played at a Chewsday 13 years ago, so I'd like to dust the old classic off.

"In Agricola, you're a farmer in a wooden shack with your spouse and little else. At first, on a turn, your family gets to take only two actions, one for you and one for your spouse, as might be found among all the possibilities on a farm: plowing fields; collecting materials; building fences, and so on. There are numerous choices available, and while the game progresses you'll have more and more, as each round a new action card is flipped over, offering one more possible action. You might think about having kids in order to get more work accomplished but first you'll need to expand your house to make room--and what are you going to feed all the little rug rats?

Agricola is a turn-based game, and the problem to be overcome is that each available action can be taken by only one player each round so it's important to be careful about your choices. There are countless strategies, some of which depend on your hand of cards. Sometimes it's a good choice to stay on course, and sometimes it is better to react to your opponents' actions..."

[Jen Rediger]

Please add me to Agricola.

Thanks!
