Agricola: All Creatures Big and Small

(2012)

Lookout Games

Agricola: All Creatures Big and Small is a streamlined, two-player-only version of the classic Agricola focused entirely on animal breeding and farm expansion. Over eight rounds, players use worker placement to construct buildings, fence in pastures, and raise as many horses, cows, sheep, and pigs as possible.

“That being said I like this game more than agria I I wasn't particularly excited about agria when it came out and I was a bit concerned about this game I thought it would be more of the same but to be honest it is streamlined and tightened up to the point where I really enjoy this game a lot more than I did the original”(6:36)

“At $40 retail, it does feel expensive for a two-player game, particularly when compared to the full-sized Agricola. However, if you're looking for a great, deep game for two, Agricola: All Creatures is worth a closer look.”
