Viticulture: Essential Edition

The game plays over a series of rounds, where each round represents a calendar year.

Each year has 4 phases, one for each of the seasons:

• Spring
• Summer
• Fall
• Winter

During your turn, you will be able to do one of the following things:

• Place a worker on a space in the current season on the main board
• Place a worker on a space on your player board
• Place a worker on a space on a structure you have built (if available)
• Pass

Players will continue to take turns in wake-up chart order until all players have passed, after which play moves to the next season. Passing in winter will allow you to choose your starting position in the next year

The spaces that are available to use in each action depends on player count:

• 1-2P: Only the left space
• 3-4P: Only the left and middle space
• 5-6P: All 3 spaces can be used

The game end is triggered when a player reaches 25 points. The current year when the players reaches this point total is completed, and then final scoring commences.

Each player scores points for the following:

• Points for majorities in the influence map

The player with the most victory points wins.

Tiebreakers are:

• Players with the most lira
• Players with the most total value of wine in their cellar
• Players with the most total value of grapes on their crush pad

Otherwise, the victory is shared
