Village: Big Box (Plan B Games)Plan B Games will be releasing a Village: Big Box to celebrate ten years of the award winning Eurogame. This new edition includes improved components as well as a trio of expansions and a solitaire play mode. The Village: Big Box is for one to five players, ages 12+, and plays in 90 to 150 minutes. No MSRP has been announced as of yet.

About the game:

Life in the village is hard, but life here also allows the inhabitants to grow and prosper as they please. One villager might want to become a friar. Another might feel ambitious and strive for a career in public office. A third one might want to seek their luck in distant lands.

In Village, each player takes the reins of a family and attempts to help them find fame and glory in many different ways. There is one thing you must not forget, however: Time will not stop for anyone, and given enough time people will vanish. Those who find themselves immortalized in the village chronicles will bring honor to their family and be one step closer to victory.

In more detail, each turn you take a cube from an area on the game board, then take the action of that area. The board has zones with specific attributes, a market, a travel zone, a crafting zone, a church, and a council house, and each zone is seeded with cubes of four colors as well as black cubes that serve as curses. Many of these areas offer multiple actions, so if for example you take a cube from the crafting area, you can get an ox, a horse, a cart, a plow, or a scroll, or you can convert wheat to gold. Some areas offer short-term scoring, others offer long-term scoring, and still others offer only endgame scoring. The round ends when no cubes remain at any location. The game ends when either the village chronicle or the anonymous graveyard is full.

Village: Big Box contains the Village base game, the Inn and Port expansions, every promo previously released, and a new expansion, with all of the materials being integrable with one another and with the game now containing a solo mode as well as revised gameplay, dual-layered boards, and a larger, double-sided main board that eliminates the need for the overlays used in the original expansions.
