The Livestock Market (2009)

About this game

Which farmer can successfully buy the most cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens? Players will need smart money management, strategy, and a little luck to score big and bring home the bacon. During the game, players can earn points by having the most animals of the type(s) being scored. At the end of the game, additional points are awarded for sets of animals. This free game was created for the print and play dice game design contest: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/405493.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 7 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
