Fifty years ago, business was blooming when the codfish would come for spawning. Today, Nusfjord is more of a museum than a village, with less than a hundred people living there. Imagine how beautiful this place must be given that you must pay a fee to even look at the houses. Cruise ships used to pass by this long and now mostly abandoned island world.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn the time period in which the game Nusfjord is set, things looked quite different. Sailing ships dominate the fjord. The rocks around Nusfjord are covered in trees. As the owner of a major fishing company in Nusfjord on the Lofoten archipelago, your goal is to develop the harbor and the surrounding landscape, and to succeed you must enlarge your fleet, clear the forest, erect new buildings, and satisfy the local elders. Others do this as well, of course, so the competition is steep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with Agricola and Ora et Labora, Nusfjord has a worker placement mechanism, with each player starting with three workers that they place on a central board to trigger certain actions. Whether a player wants to clear a forest on their own board, buy a new cutter, or construct a building, they must place a worker on the appropriate space - which is possible only if room is available for this worker. Money is scarce, and one of the quicker and easier ways to get it is to place shares of your own company on the market. This risky action could be worthwhile because if you succeed in buying these shares yourself, you have usually won money and not suffered any disadvantages; however, if an opponent acquires these shares, then you must allow them to benefit from your hard-earned catches at sea. The village elders might want their own share of your catch as well, especially if you've visited them to take certain actions in the village, so if you don't take care, your catch could end up entirely in the hands of others and your camp will be empty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNusfjord Big Box contains the Nusfjord base game, two previously released expansions (Plaice and Salmon), and two new expansions (Trout and Besokende), along with extra components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Nusfjord","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56048060858746,"sku":"ZBG-LOG0169","price":34.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9970\/8282\/files\/ZBG-LOG0169.jpg?v=1760976250"},{"product_id":"agricola-15th-anniversary-collectors-box","title":"Agricola 15th Anniversary Collector's Box","description":"\u003cp\u003eTHIS IS THE ULTIMATE CHEST FOR YOUR AGRICOLA TREASURES!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou are one of the biggest AGRICOLA fans ever?

These days he's one of the 'big-name designers' for Euro-style games. There was only one problem with Agricola. What if you have a fifth player that wants to join in? Or a sixth?Well, worry no more! The Agricola 5-6 Player Expansion, by Lookout Spiel, does exactly that. The aim of the game remains: can you create the best farm and score the most points over 14 rounds? To accommodate up to six players, this 5-6 Player Expansion provides all the necessary components. Everyone will still be able to develop their farms in their own unique ways! Anyone that's played Agricola before knows that wood - lots of wood! - is crucial early-game. And there's a bunch more of it in this box!There's also an extra couple of farmyard boards, as well as additional room tiles. More players means more mouths to feed... So that means more food markers! There's also 48 new occupations (cards), as well as eight more major improvement cards. More cards means more variety and even more modular manners to design that dream farm. Add in a couple of extra players, and ta-da!

In Agricola, 1-4 players compete as rival medieval farmers. You each start off with humble beginnings: a small house and a patch of empty land. It's a worker placement game where you'll look to grow vegetables to feed your family. You'll look to gain resources to expand your farmhouse. And you'll look to fence off pastures so you can practise animal husbandry and get some cows and sheep!Farmers of the Moor, then, adds further depth, strategy and options into the mix. The same core gameplay remains. You visit resource accumulation spots, and new locations get added each passing round. But there's changes, too. To begin with, your farm's covered with forest and moor tiles. You'll need to clear these before you start farming! But don't worry, you can cut the peat you find in the moor, so it's not all bad. You'll need that peat though - because now you have to heat your farm, or your family fall sick! Heating costs fall if you renovate your house, which could drive your early-game strategy...In this expansion there's more animeeples, too! (Animals + meeples = animeeples!) Horses get their debut in Farmers of the Moor, and they provide big points if you can breed them. Also, there's an extra 14 new Major Improvements, and a whopping 117 Minor Improvements. These cards will have a big impact on how you plan your approach. At the same time, they provide a barn-load more replay-ability.This is the revised version of Farmers of the Moor, by publisher Lookout Spiele. You'll need the base game of Agricola to play this expansion. Do you also own the Agricola 5-6 Player Expansion? If so, you can play Agricola: Farmers of the Moor with 5-6 players, too!

Not feeding that resulted in heavy penalties. Caverna softened the system a bit but kept it in the game. All Creatures Big and Small does away with it completely. While this may put some off the reason is quite clear. This is a streamlined shorter game of rearing animals and fencing them in efficiently, to have to worry about feeding on top of this would be a touch to much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach player starts with three workers, which they will place on certain sections of the board to take the action associated with that section. Usually, this is collecting resources which can then be used to upgrade your farm with buildings, fences, stalls and the like. These are all important but the real key to big scores are animals. For a start you score negative points unless you get three of each of the four animal types. But animals won't stay in an open field - why would they? So using your gathered resources you will place out buildings and fences to contain them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany buildings can hold animals, but there are strict rules regarding how many animals can stay in an area but this can be increased by various means. In the big box there are so many buildings included due to the expansions, so the variety is incredible. I believe the vanilla All Creatures Big and Small was criticised until the expansions arrived, so it's great to have them in one box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eASBO\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Creatures Big and Small is a worker placement game but also a risk and reward race of sorts. A number of the resource and animal sections of the board continue to have resources added to them each round. This means that if no one visits a space with three wood in the first round, another three will be added on the next round and so on. So, how tempting does the pile have to get before one of you takes it? Or should you take it early to be safe? I love these kind of decisions in games and it works even better in a two-player game as there's more chance something will be left for you if you wait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you take the action to get more fences you also get a farm extension of three more fields. Extensions are great ways of scoring more points as if you fill one you earn four points. Might not seem like much but in All Creatures Big and Small it can be HUGE!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe variety in the game is excellent! There are tons of buildings and in the base and advanced variant you only use eight, you can add to this for an even more advanced game, but the rule and I recommend waiting until you get the flow of the game until you add more buildings. Buildings are essentially powers, often adding points, animal storage or some other useful function to your farm, thankfully there is a handy appendix in the rules so you can check what they do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy biggest complaint is a printing error using the older icons on one of the starting buildings. This is unfortunate as this tile is used every game, and while not a huge deal it is aesthetically disappointing. Some people point out the the wooden cows and horses are very similar in colour and in anything less than piercing white light it can be difficult to tell them apart. For me this hasn't really been an issue but I can see how they could be confused.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAll Creatures Big and Small\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this point I have played All Creatures Big and Small more than I have played \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.board-game.co.uk\/product\/agricola\/\"\u003eAgricola\u003c\/a\u003e, not because it is a better game but because it is drastically shorter and more straight forward. It doesn't really feel like 'mini Agricola' as a lot has been stripped back, but it maintains enough to be recognised as a relative and one that you can see the family resemblance in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of this, All Creatures Big and Small is a great game to teach worker placement, as a two-player game it is a perfect teach, plays short enough to have a learning game followed by a proper game, and could be a good gateway to heavier worker placement games. It will not replace Agricola, but it will give you a satisfying quicker experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBottom Line:\u003c\/strong\u003e All Creatures Big and Small provides a tight, engaging and quick take on worker placement and farming.

It might come as a surprise to discover that Bohnanza was designed by Uwe Rosenberg (10 years before he created , , and many other 'bigger' games). However, despite being overshadowed by those weighty titles, this card game still provides clever, fun mechanics and punches above its weight for a game that has been around for more than 20 years. Bohnanza's deck consists of many different types of bean. Players (up to seven) will be aiming to plant beans of the same type in one of their two 'bean fields', and eventually harvest them to earn coins. Once the deck has been exhausted three times, the player with the most money wins. On your turn you have to play a bean card from your hand into one of your two available bean fields. Only beans of the same type can be played into one field, so if you have to play a different (third) type of bean other than those in your fields on your turn, you must first harvest one of your fields. Players can purchase a vital third bean field for three coins, giving them more flexibility. Bean types earn you differing amounts of coins, depending on how many beans you are harvesting at the time (some beans are rarer than others, and therefore worth more coins for having fewer of them, and vice versa for more common beans). On the reverse of every card is one coin. Harvesting your beans for coins? Simply flip over the appropriate value of cards of those harvested beans to keep for yourself, while the others return to the discard pile. This means, therefore, that there are now less beans of your just-harvested type available when the discard pile is shuffled and becomes the new deck later on. There is a really neat twist in Bohnanza, and it kicks in as soon as the initial cards have been dealt out to everyone. Players can look at but not rearrange their hand of cards. They must always play their top card, and any cards they acquire go to the back of their 'queue'. Therefore, players need to be clever about how they 'rearrange' their order of cards... On your turn you can vocally offer to trade any cards in your hand with the other players. Therefore you could get rid of beans you don't want and receive ones you do - but be careful, you could be gifting big points to other players! Of course, you may have no choice, because you might want to avoid being forced into harvesting one of your bean fields before you want to, if your next card is a type you're not collecting! Bohnanza is an unsung hero from Uwe Rosenberg's collection of board games. It takes strong willpower not to rearrange your hand (like you would in literally any other card game!), but that's the brilliant thing about it. Believe us, it makes for a lot of fun when it comes to desperate trading of cards!

In Agricola, 2-4 players compete to build and run the best farm. (It also provides a solo mode.) It's a medium-weight Euro-style game, with the aim being to score the most victory points over 14 rounds. First-come, first-served worker placement lies at the heart of Agricola.
