THE FUN! ***BEST BET AWARD 2000*** Farm-tastic! This board game was a surprise hit with young entrepreneurs who enjoyed the ins and outs of keeping a farm operating and thriving financially. Players got to "own" a farm and had to buy crops, fruit trees, cows, a tractor and a harvester in order to expand their business. Players began each game with no money--they were extended a credit line--but if they planned their farm wisely and managed their debt, they could make money while getting a good yield from the harvest. Players could also fall victim to "farmer's fate" in which unexpected disasters or expenses arose. Sound like real life? Kids thought this game was wonderful, and enjoyed playing it again and again.
