Description

Picture a dusty frontier where you and three friends juggle politics, war, and the ever‑shifting balance of power, all with rules you can explain in a coffee break. As Long As The Grass Grows drops you into the American West of the Indian Wars, letting you claim territories and sway influence with a simple Area Majority mechanic while the phase order changes every turn, keeping everybody guessing. Designed by Philip Jelley in 2018, this print‑and‑play heavyweight stretches from a three‑hour marathon to a nine‑hour epic, so you can settle scores over a weekend or make a whole day of it. The fun comes from the tug‑of‑war between settlers, tribes, and politicians—each move feels like a little slice of history, and the only thing more unpredictable than the dice is the way the phases reshuffle.
