Farms Race: Deluxe Edition

About this board game

Farms Race: Deluxe Edition is a strategy game for 2–5 players, with games lasting about 120 minutes. In a countryside transformed by radioactive waste, sentient farm animals pursue an insatiable hunger for power.

Each player takes the role of a Supreme Leader guiding a species of farm animal. Armed with the weapons of their former human masters, your forces must fight both the humans and rival animal factions for control of the countryside.

The game parodies peaceful Eurogames such as Catan and Agricola, turning familiar ideas of development and competition into an outrageous struggle for dominance. Your objective is to race to 10 Victory Points through a range of ambitious projects and aggressive actions.

• Build Barns and Armories.
• Recruit Spies.
• Build the most nukes.
• Conquer opponents’ regions with your herds.

Farms Race: Deluxe Edition contains everything needed to play, along with an expansion’s worth of additional content. It also includes pieces for a fifth player, making it suitable for larger groups of would-be animal overlords.

Higher-quality components and bonus goodies round out this expanded edition. Released in 2024 and named a Mensa Select winner in 2025, it offers a distinctive blend of strategy, parody, and escalating competition for control of the countryside.
