Agricola

So, does anyone play it? For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a 1-5 player, resource and turn based board game. You start out with an empty farm and two people who can then perform actions such as gather wood, reed, clay etc. You then upgrade your farm in many different ways, get some kids who'll grow up and can perform actions themselves. You get points in the end for almost everything you do, and minus points for things that are missing on your farm.

The reason I'm asking is I feel like playing and there's a web version of the game you can play for free.

I played it with my sister but I dont get it, the game is so short you're just starving farmers the whole time :/

I've never played it myself.

Give it a few times juroara, I haven't taken a begging card (unless I've got an occupation that allows me to get rid of them) for ages. It might seem short and by the end you wish there was just one more action, you never seem to get everything you want. It's all about planning your moves and making sure you get to take as many actions as possible throughout the game. Whilst of course making sure you've got food for your family.
