About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever wondered what happens when the fierce competition of the vineyards turns into a family effort? Viticulture World: Cooperative Expansion does exactly that. Instead of trying to outdo your friends, you now form a network of winemakers spread across various global regions, working together to achieve worldwide recognition. It's the kind of game where the table talk shifts from 'I'm blocking you' to 'how do we solve this together?'.

The dynamics are intriguing because it blends the individual management of your own vineyard with the collective need to boost the group's influence in the region. You have six years (rounds) to hit two crucial milestones: every single player must reach 25 victory points, and the shared influence token must reach the end of its track. If one person falls behind, everyone loses. This tension creates a level of asymmetry and cooperation reminiscent of hits like Spirit Island or Orleans: Invasion.

To bring this experience to life, the expansion introduces a new game board, new tiles, and event cards that integrate seamlessly with the base game's vineyard mats and cards. It's the perfect choice for those who love Viticulture's worker placement mechanics but want to test the group's patience and strategy toward a common goal. Keep in mind that, as with any expansion, the base game is required to play. The great news? It's compatible with other expansions in the line, so you can further enhance your global winery.

Get ready to plan every planting and harvest carefully, as coordination between players is the key to success. Will your family manage to dominate the global wine market, or will a lack of synergy ruin the vintage?
