I must say that this game does not like that interesting from the discription. Who wants to be a farmer in a game? The instructions are not that heavy, but it's a little long and you can mess up a few rules. We had a few errors that ruined the first play. I would hop over to Boardgamegeek and get "Common Mistakes While Playing Agricola - A Summary", here is the link:

This should clear up most little problems. The rules are not hard, once you play the game, the learning curve is not that steep.
That said, after playing several times, our group of three is hooked! I have not had the chance to play with 4 or 5 people yet, but I can't wait to.
The game comes with three card sets: E Deck is the basic deck, I Deck is the interactive deck, and the K Deck is the complex deck. We have only used thebasic deck, but you can mix and match as you see fit. I don't like the random factor with the cards, we deal double the amount to each player (you start with 7 occupation cards and 7 improvment cards.) and let them pick and dicard half, this helps abit from getting a bad deal.
Don't let the theme turn you off, this is a solid game and I would place it with Catan for games that will hook people. |
