You know Caverna, the sequel of sorts to Uwe Rosenberg's farming smash hit, Agricola. Caverna is a worker placement game where you manage a family of cave dwarves. On one half of your plot of land you'll try to build a blossoming farm - grow crops and breed animals. On the other, you'll try to dig a cave network, build mines and furnish cave dwellings. What comes in Caverna: The Forgotten Folk, then? Well, you can substitute out the 'dwarves' part of it, for starters! Here you can play as one of eight different fantastical races. Each has their own asymmetrical offerings. All species, no matter which on you pick, have special advantages or disadvantages. Each race also has four unique rooms ('furnishings' that you can place inside your cave). These enter the game instead of the some of the rooms in base-Caverna. The races you can play as are:- Humans - they prefer farming over caving. You can 'overhang' farm tiles off your mat, but when caving, you can only place single cave tiles. They don't lose points for empty spaces in their cave.- Elves - also prefer farming. They can plant and keep animals without clearing the forest. They love sunlight, so can't cave unless they pay rubies. - Pale Ones - in many ways, the opposite to Humans! They prefer caving over farming. They can visit worker placement mining spots that are already occupied. Their cave tiles can overhang. And they can sow mushrooms in their caves!- Mountain Dwarves - also prefer caving. They're not as interested in farming, but they can swap wood resource payments for stone or ore, instead.- Trolls - due to their big sacks, Trolls get more loot when they go on adventures! But they have to pay more food during each harvest. Lucky that they can eat dogs, sheep and donkeys, then...- Dark Elves - come with Goblins, who they can place out when they go on adventures of 10 or more. They also locate more rubies in their mines.- Cave Goblins - these guys are clumsy (picking up less goods). They're incompetent (they go last in turn order). But you get lots of them, so can you make the extra numbers count?- Silicoids - these rock creatures eat stone instead of food! Each time you build furnishings you get stone discounts. You can also convert food into points and then points into stone each turn.

During the game, players will be competing to make the best cave for their dwarven tribe. They will be doing this by excavating the cave and constructing new rooms both for living quarters and to obtain resources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mechanics are similar to a worker-placement game, but instead of placing a worker, players take actions for their sole use. Each round players take a set number of actions, which increases as the game goes on. These actions can be used to excavate the cave, obtain more resources, or take actions from built rooms. Players will only start with one excavated room, so one action they can take. As the game progresses and rooms are built, the variety of actions will grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRooms can only be built if the walls are in the right configuration for them. Some rooms must have a specific wall configuration, whereas others have a few more options. There is only a limited supply of walls, and limited options to build these. Players must be strategic with where to place their walls so they can keep building their cave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers have to be careful to manage their resources as they need to ensure they have enough resources to be able to build rooms. However, at the end of the game gold is the only resource worth points so players need to be sure they don’t have too many resources which go to waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe player with the highest total points from rooms built and gold collected wins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaverna: Cave vs Cave also comes with a solo mode where a player can build up their cave, trying to get as many points as possible, to see if they can beat their previous best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNumber of Players: 1-2\u003cbr\u003eGame Length: 20-40 minutes\u003cbr\u003eAge: 10+\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- \/wp:fl-builder\/layout --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Mayfair Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56050150080890,"sku":"ZBG-MFG3525","price":17.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9970\/8282\/files\/Caverna-Cave-vs-Cave.jpg?v=1760985039"},{"product_id":"caverna","title":"Caverna","description":"\u003cp\u003eCaverna: The Cave Farmers is a spiritual sucessor to Uwe Rosenberg's smash hit, Agricola. You can tick off the telltale signs: it's published by Lookout Spiele. The artworks's also by Klemens Franz. And there's wooden animeeples galore!You get a whole lot of goodies in Caverna. This box is a big'un! The game plays in a similar way to Agricola, but more than stands its own. Caverna is a worker placement, resource management game, themed around a farming simulation. You start with a near-empty player board, and over twelve rounds you'll aim to fill it with... everything! You'll also need to feed your family at regular harvest intervals. Have you grown enough food?Depending on player count - Caverna plays solo, or up to seven - there's a bunch of starter worker placement spots. These have an resource accumulation mechanism at the start of each round. They'll soon become too tempting to ignore! And you'll want all the resources to achieve all your targets. At the start of each round, an extra location gets added, so your options increase.One of the cool extra additions Caverna offers is that dwarves can go off on adventures! What loot will they find on their travels? They even 'level up' after a quest. So, next time they go off adventuring, they'll have access to even more powerful free resources.Your board has two halves. You deforest one part to become a farm (like Agricola's), and the other half is a cave, which you can explore. On your farm you can grow wheat and vegetables, or practise animal husbandry in pastures. You can dig tunnels into your cave, and build ore and ruby mines. You can also furnish your cave network with rooms! These can offer extra points at the end of the game. All the 48 furnishings are available from the start. This gives you an almost-sandbox vibe. There's so many different ways to play!
