Graantje de Voorste: Het Bordspel

In Graantje de Voorste: Het Bordspel the farmyard has turned into a feeding frenzy. As a flock of greedy chickens, 2–6 players race to snatch the tastiest food tokens from six different farms and turn them into points, all while a hungry fox creeps closer step by step. Each round you secretly play a food card to grab treats from the current farm – or a chicken card to flee to the next farm and cash in your haul – before rolling dice in a tall dice tower that advances the fox along its track. It’s a fast, family-friendly push-your-luck board game of about 45 minutes for players aged 10 and up.

Key Features:

• Cheeky chickens vs. cunning fox: Colourful artwork and a lighthearted farm theme put you in the feathers of chickens dodging a prowling fox.

• Simultaneous secret card play: Everyone chooses one card face-down each round, trying to predict where others will search for food and when they might flee.

• Chicken card to bank your loot: Playing a chicken card lets you escape to the next farm board and immediately convert your collected food tokens into victory points.

• Dice tower and fox track: Dice rolled through the tower show fox pawprints; every print moves the fox closer to your flock on the track.

• High-risk, high-reward turns: Staying longer at a farm means more food and bigger point conversions, but if five pawprints are rolled before you flee, you lose everything.

• Six farms, escalating tension: Farm by farm the stakes rise; once all six have been raided, the player with the highest total score wins the game.

• Board game based on the card game: Expands the popular Graantje de Voorste card game with a big board, striking dice tower and a three-language rulebook in one box.
