Riverboat
Players run 19th-century riverside farms and organize workers to grow and ship crops down the Mississippi. Play runs four rounds of drafted phase cards; phases resolve in numerical order with the phase chooser acting first. Workers are placed on individual fields, crops are grouped by type to meet field requirements, and harvests are loaded onto riverboats at docks that accept only a single good type. Between launching boats and taking special actions, players score points for efficient field organization and successful shipments.

Garfield5.0 #TilePlacement #SetCollection I thought it's more about ships, but it's almost only about laying the tiles in a good way. And this part is quite luck prone. Iconography not always clear what has to be harvested or not. And I don't like the fact that e.g. in a 3 player game someone gets one less phase tile in the sum. For that he should get a kind of bonus.
