Formaggio Retail Edition (engl.)

Description

Formaggio Retail Edition (engl.) is a strategy game for 1 to 4 players aged 14+ with a playing time of 30-45 minutes. Players become Italian cheesemakers crafting, aging, and selling artisanal cheeses. The game features simultaneous worker placement, rotating boards, and multiple new mini-games, offering varied paths to victory and the option to combine with the base game for endless replayability.

You are an Italian cheesemaker in the early 20th century making, aging, and selling your artisanal cheeses. Become the most prestigious cheesemaker in all of Italy by running a highly successful creamery and crafting exceptional cheese.

Formaggio is a standalone expansion for Fromage. With both games put together, you can combine any 4 board quadrants, and draft any combination of structure tiles for more variety and more paths to victory.

Formaggio is a simultaneous worker-placement game where players place Workers to make cheese and gather resources from the quadrant of the board facing them. Once all players have placed their Workers, the board rotates, aging any cheese that was made, and presenting each player with a new quadrant to place Workers into. Score Prestige Points by selling cheese to the four locations, and by efficiently managing and upgrading your creamery.

Formaggio features 4 new board quadrants with all new puzzling mini-games:
• Pair your cheese with the wines at the Vigneto.
• Sell cheese to restaurants along the Venetian canals and attract customers.
• Distribute cheese across the Regioni of Italy.
• Deposit cheese in the Banca. (Yes, there is a real bank in Italy that accepts cheese as collateral for loans!)

Other new features:
• Platinum-tier cheeses.
• Reap various rewards in each of the Seasons.
• All new abilities on the Player Boards and Structure tiles.

Fromage, the award-winning board game about French cheese is getting a reprint and a sequel about Italian cheese!

Introducing Formaggio, the new standalone expansion to Fromage. This means you can play it on its own, or mix-and-match every component with the base game for endless replayability.
