In La Granja, players earn points by getting goods and delivering them to central buildings, or their own personal orders. The game is played over 6 rounds as players try to use their cards effectively, as every card can be played four different ways!
The game revolves around doing 3 main things:
- Gathering goods for your personal farm
- Delivering resources to central buildings (craft buildings) or your own personal orders (market barrows)
- Getting abilities and improvements for creating/delivering
Gathering goods
There are several ways to gather goods during the game. Ultimately, you'll want to gather goods that correspond to a particular set, as that's the main way to get victory points. See Craft Buildings and Market Barrows below for more information on the sets.
The first phase of each round is the farm phase, where your farm produces. You'll start each round by playing a card (or two cards for the first round) to one of 4 places.
Playing a card as a farm extension
Cards played as farm extension can increase your hand size, extra delivery limit, income, or pig limit. (See Delivering Goods for more info on the extra delivery limit)
To play your first farm extension, you first need to pay 1 resource -- either a good, a coin, or a victory point. The next extension costs 2 unique resources, the third costs 3, and so on.
Getting Income
After you've played your cards, you can get income, depending on how many blue coins you have on the extensions.
Playing a card as a field
To play a card as a field, tuck it under the left side of your personal farm board, so only the left side of the card is showing.
Producing on your fields
After taking any income, any fields you have will produce. Each card played as a field will fill its slot when your farm produces, but only if the slot is empty. Goods on fields can't be stored anywhere to make room for new goods.
