Caverna: The Cave Farmers (Board Game)
Following along the same lines as its predecessor (Agricola), Caverna: TheCave Farmers is a worker-placement game at heart, with a focus on farming. Inthe game, you are the bearded leader of a small dwarf family that lives in alittle cave in the mountains. You begin the game with a farmer and his spouse,and each member of the farming family represents an action that the player cantake each turn. Together, you cultivate the forest in front of your cave and digdeeper into the mountain. You furnish the caves as dwellings for your offspringas well as working spaces for small enterprises.
It's up to you how much ore you want to mine. You will need it to forgeweapons that allow you to go on expeditions to gain bonus items and actions.While digging through the mountain, you may come across water sources and findore and ruby mines that help you increase your wealth. Right in front of yourcave, you can increase your wealth even further with agriculture: You can cutdown the forest to sow fields and fence in pastures to hold your animals. Youcan also expand your family while running your ever-growing farm. In the end,the player with the most efficiently developed home board wins.
You can also play the solo variant of this game to familiarize yourself withthe 48 different furnishing tiles for your cave.
Caverna: The Cave Farmers, which has a playing time of roughly 30 minutesper player, is a complete redesign of Agricola that substitutes the card decksfrom the former game with a set of buildings while adding the ability topurchase weapons and send your farmers on quests to gain further resources.Designer Uwe Rosenberg says that the game includes parts of Agricola, but alsohas new ideas, especially the cave part of your game board, where you can buildmines and search for rubies. The game also includes two new animals: dogs anddonkeys.
