Stonemaier Games Viticulture Essential Edition Board Game

Product Description

In the game, you find yourself in rustic, pre modern Tuscany, where you've inherited a meager vineyard. You'll have a few plots of land, an old crush pad, a tiny cellar, 3 workers.and the dream of owning the best winery in Italy. Your job is to allocate your workers and helpful visitors to complete various tasks throughout the year. Each season is different on a vineyard, so the workers have different tasks they can take care of in the summer and winter. There's competition over those tasks, and often the first worker to arrive at each one has an advantage over the rest. Using those workers and visitors, you can expand your vineyard by building structures, planting vines, and filling wine orders as you work towards the goal of owning the most successful winery in Tuscany. The essential edition includes the second edition of Viticulture along with several elements from the original Tuscany expansion pack, hand picked by famed designer Uwe Rosenberg. These include Mama & papas, fields (properties), various visitor cards, & automat (solo variant).

Features

• Build Your Vineyard: Create the most prosperous winery in Italy from the Tuscan vineyard you’ve inherited in this worker placement wine-making game.
• Assign Tasks to Your Workers: Every season is different on a vineyard, so the workers have different tasks they can take care of in the summer and winter. There's competition over those tasks, and often the first worker to get to the job has an advantage over subsequent workers.
• Goals: Using those workers and visitors, the vineyard owners can expand their vineyards by building structures, planting vines, and filling wine orders, working towards the goal of running the most successful winery in Tuscany.
• High Replayability and Variability: Visitors are willing to help out around the vineyard when they visit as long as you assign a worker to take care of them. Their visits (in the form of cards) are brief but can be very helpful. Visitors vary from game to game, so this adds a great deal of variety to each play.
• Beautifully Designed and Illustrated: Designed by Jamey Stegmaier (Scythe) and Alan Stone (Euphoria: Build a Better Dystopia). Illustrated by Jacqui Davis (Cubitos), David Montgomery, and Beth Sobel (Wingspan).
• Essential Edition: Includes the base game of Viticulture along with a few mini expansions like Mamas & Papas, Fields, expanded and revised Visitors, and Automa/solo mode cards.
• For families, solo gamers, and game groups alike: This hand management and worker placement strategy game for 1-5 players has a 45-90 minute playing time with only a 5 minute setup time. Great game for couples, solo gamers, 2 players, family, and friends, making this a wonderful gift for board gamers and wine lovers.
• Thematically Designed Mechanisms: As each year turns, your wine gains value as it ages. Use irrigation and trellises to plant grapes in your fields, and turn those grapes into wine.
• Solo Play: Features an Automa to play against in a 1-player game for a fun solitaire experience. The Automa simulates an opponent for you to compete against, while your game as a player remains the same. On the Automa’s turn, flip a card to see what action it takes.
