About the game
What you do in a play session
Behold Bohniläum, a special anniversary edition celebrating 15 years of the classic Bohnanza! Unlike the original German version, which accommodates 3-5 players, this edition expands the fun to up to 7 people, making negotiations even more chaotic and lively. Get ready to manage your hand of cards like never before, as each card here can have multiple uses, demanding strategic choices. The goal remains the same: plant and harvest your beans, but with a renewed artistic touch. It includes 180 cards, each illustrated by a different artist, giving the game a unique and vibrant look. The core mechanic of negotiation and trading between players is the heart of the experience. You'll need to be a smooth talker to get the cards you need and get rid of those that are just a hindrance. Collecting the right sets of beans is the key to victory, but beware of traps and your opponents' moves. Bohniläum is perfect for those who already enjoy Bohnanza and want a version with more players and a spectacular look, or for anyone seeking a card game with lots of social interaction, negotiation, and a light, fun theme. It's a great choice to liven up parties and gatherings, ensuring laughter and friendly competition.
