Description
Get ready for an out-of-this-world twist on the classic farming game Agricola with the X-Deck expansion. This not-entirely-serious add-on brings aliens to your farm, adding a whole new level of excitement and unpredictability to the game. The X-Deck includes 24 cards of five different types, featuring alien actions, merchants from outer space, alien artifacts, alien events, and alien occupations, all illustrated by the talented Klemens Franz. When a player creates a Quarry, they draw the top card from the Alien Encounter Deck, introducing a new element of surprise and challenge to the game. The X-Deck expansion is designed for 1 to 5 players and takes about 120 minutes to play, making it a great addition to your regular Agricola games. The rules are of normal complexity, so if you're familiar with board games, you should have no problem learning this expansion. The game mechanics are based on worker placement, which is a key element of the original Agricola game, so you'll need to strategically manage your farm and resources while also dealing with the unexpected arrival of aliens. The X-Deck expansion adds a fun and quirky science fiction element to the game, making it a great choice for fans of economic and farming games who are looking for something new and exciting. The X-Deck expansion was first released in 2008 and has been available in both German and English editions. It's a great way to breathe new life into your Agricola games and add some variety to your gameplay experience. With its unique blend of farming and science fiction elements, the X-Deck expansion is a must-have for fans of the original game. So why not give it a try and see how you fare against the challenges of alien invasions and intergalactic trade? The X-Deck expansion is a fun and unpredictable addition to the world of Agricola, and it's sure to provide hours of entertainment for you and your friends.
