Description

In The Farming Game, you're on a mission to turn your part-time farm into a full-time success. With easy-to-learn rules, 2 to 6 players can join in on the fun, navigating the ups and downs of farming over 120 minutes of play. You'll plant crops like wheat, hay, and cherries, and lease cattle grazing rights, all in the hopes of striking it big and quitting your day job. As you play, you'll need to stay on top of price fluctuations and unexpected costs like equipment breakdowns and labor problems. But if you can manage to reach a total net worth of $250,000, you'll be crowned the winner. First published in 1979, this classic game of commodity speculation and strategic planning is still entertaining players today, thanks to the clever design of George Rohrbacher.
