    I love Caverna. I love the Caverna theme more than Agricola, I love the mining, expeditions and all of the rooms BUT I wish it had more randomness simply for replay value.

    Plethora is one of my favorite words! A plethora of components. Cool!

    Yeah, I like the Agricola puzzle more. It's a tight focussed game that I always find to be well balanced in any player count. Definitely not for everyone though for Tom's very valid reasons. Agricola is the jigsaw and Carverna is the sandbox.

    Wow, great timing Tom. I've been interested in this one and I think you sold me on it!

    Any game where I can terrorize sheep with dogs while I chew on raw pumpkins and digging a cave at the same time is ace in my book.

    I love both Caverna and Agricola. They have slightly different stuff to offer, so I'm happy to have both in my collection.
    I'm in the slightly prefer Agricola camp. I like that every game the puzzle is different as you adapt to whatever cards you have. I think I slightly prefer the tighter need for food as well.

    Played Caverna for the first time tonight and it completely replaces Agricola for me.

    the only thing I prefer in Agricola is the cards,. if there were some kind of room that would only show up every few games that would tip the scales completely in caverna's favor.

    I just purchased Agricola. Mainly because I got the new revised edition for only $50. Caverna looked fun as well but its expensive

    Ya I love Caverna more than Agricola. I think the cards are cool on Agricola, but if you don’t get dealt ones that work together and someone else does it kinda hurts your chances of winning a lot.

    Has A Feast for Odin replaced Caverna?

  • @sad0happy
    @sad0happy 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    For me A Feast for Odin and Ora & Labora replace Caverna. Somewhat surprisingly I sold Caverna forward some time ago.

    • @juanovo89
      @juanovo89 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      A Feast for Odin is a beast of a game. Probably Uwe's best game, but still, Caverna has its own feeling and flavour and it's nice to have variety of games.

    Nobody got the begging bowl in the Caverna game that I played.

    Caverna is too easy, Agricola is the gamers game. I hate how easy it is to feed your people, I love how tense it can get in Agricola. Caverna also devolves into AP due to its sandbox nature. That and the fact that Agricola gets a huge amount of replayability from the minor improvement/occupation cards means Agricola is the better game for in my opinion. I do like the adventuring from Caverna, though.

    Hi Mates. 👧🦘🇦🇺. I am looking for a sheep farming board game that has puzzly feel to it and more. Is Caverna a standalone game? Do I need Agricola? Is it in the World of Agricola, but it's own game? Is it also Solo.

    • @karlvorndran2996

      Caverna and Agricola are two separate games, juts made by the same designer, with similar mechanics and art. They are not set in the same world. If you only care about farming, get Agricola instead. They both play solo but I have never tried them solo.
