999 Games - Boonanza Card Game - Basic Game from 10 Years Old - Nominated for The Dutch Games Prize 2003, Uwe Rosenberg - for 3 to 5 Players - 999-BOO01

In this communicative card game, players trade with their beans and grow them on their fields. Who is trying the other players to get the best beans and earn the most money? Each player receives 5 bean cards and must hold them in order in his hand. Each player has two bean fields. On each of them he is allowed to grow one type of beans. When it's your turn, you need the first card and you can remodel the second card from your hand. Then you open two new bean cards, which you can keep or trade. You can also trade cards from your hand. That can be useful, because a bean field is worth more if there are more cards of a kind on it. And if you need to grow one species that is not there, you have to sell another. And that may come too early… However, you can choose once per game to buy an extra bean field for three thalers. The game ends when the pile of bean cards has been played through three times. Whoever has the most money afterwards wins. Boonanza is a fascinating trading game by the author of Agricola and Le Havre and is highly recommended for lovers of, for example, The Settlers of Catan.
