i play aacbas with expansions and i enjoy that game… regular agricola and revised version seems too daunting… the family edition looks like it would be a good fit, but the lack of building options is a let down

Hi ezekiel. Thanks for the comment. I have never played Agricola in Family Mode. From what I can tell by reading the rules, the Agricola Family Mode variant offers more replayability. The fixed actions in Agricola: Family Edition still limit the repeat plays.

Happy to provide the info Scott. I also have ACB&S and it works well alongside Agricola. This just doesn’t provide anything different from base Agricola.

What a helpful review. You’ve saved me a purchase. I started with ACB&S, then progressed to normal Agricola w/ the “family” rules, then added cards. I don’t see how this version lasts very long in a collection if anyone gets hooked on the gameplay. ACB&S, though limited to 2p, is a much better intro to the basics, and less expensive. It’s still on my shelf — great travel game and quick, different enough to fill a niche.
