The Farm Game - Instructions
This game is based around choosing crops on the farm.
The idea is to make as much money as you can in the 20 years that you are farming.
The success of your crops will depend upon the weather over the year. This cannot be controlled, but it will affect how much money you make.
You have a choice of three crops: wheat, potatoes and grass.
You may plant one of each crop, or place all your hopes on one crop each year.
Wheat: .... grows best in hot and dry weather, but only really suffers if it is wet AND cold.
Potatoes: .... wet and cold weather yields a VERY good crop, but dry weather yields a poor crop.
Grass: .... (used to feed animals) grows at a reasonable rate in most weathers, but struggles in a drought.
You now all have all the information you require, so to start the game .......
