Farmini

About this board game

Farmini is a tile-laying game for 1–4 players that takes 15 minutes to play, with each player building a personal barnyard from cards. The goal is to create the best farm by growing land, placing animals, and protecting them behind fences.

On each turn, choose a card from the river and place it in your farm. A Field/Fence tile lets you expand your land and close fences, while an Animal card is placed in one of your fields. As your barnyard develops, you must work to complete the fences around your animals.

Protection is especially important when a wolf appears. Any animals that are not protected enough will be taken away, so building a secure farm is a central part of the game. Every card you add can help shape your barnyard and influence how well your animals survive.

Once all cards have been placed, players score their completed farms. Points are awarded for the animals remaining in their fields, with additional points for the crops they successfully circle with fences.

• Choose cards from the river to develop your farm.
• Use Field/Fence tiles to grow land and close enclosures.
• Place animals in fields and protect them from wolves.
• Score animals and crops enclosed by fences.

With its compact play time and straightforward tile-laying structure, Farmini challenges players to balance expansion, animal placement, and protection. Who will build the most successful barnyard around the table?
