Score the most VP when the game ends. VP comes from completed contracts, owned tools, coin conversion, reputation placement, and upgraded plots. Ties are broken by reputation, then remaining coins.

Start the draw phase. Draw 2 crop cards, then optionally draw a private contract if the contract draw is available. Some events and tools can change the draw amount.

Choose Fast Bazaar for 45 seconds or Normal Bazaar for 75 seconds before entering the action phase. Players may offer, counter, accept, decline, or cancel trades using crop cards and coins. Tools and contracts stay with their owners.

You normally receive 3 AP. Spend AP legally, then end your turn. If you cannot or do not want to act, end turn to move into cleanup.

Each player starts with 2 plots and can own up to 4. A plot holds 4 cards by default and must contain only one crop type. Plant matching crops to build a larger harvest, or sell a plot to clear it and gain coins.

Public contracts are shared and refill when completed. Private contracts belong only to you. Completing either type consumes the required planted crops and awards coins, reputation, and contract VP.

Public tools cost 2 AP plus coins. Tools create persistent advantages such as extra draw, hand limit boosts, Bazaar bonuses, contract bonuses, weather protection, or extra AP. Owned tools also score VP at game end.

A new event can appear when play wraps back to the first player. Events may change crop sale value, crop draws, contract rewards, Bazaar duration, AP, taxes, weather pressure, or other round priorities.
