Market Day (1984)

About this game

Each farmer races around the board collecting voucher cards for the animals he needs to complete his farm. When he has enough for a horse, cow, pig or sheep he can buy that animal next time he goes to the market. Some things can go wrong if you land on the broken tractor, open gate, etc.. The first to buy and fit all the animals on to their farm is the winner. Contents: Playing board. 4 tractors/16 animals 60 cards/dice/rules

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 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
