Volatile Vintage 2024

Volatile Vintage is an engine builder that will have you building up vineyards in competition with others to produce the most wine barrels, all the while fighting off mob attacks, investing in your workforce, and signing accords with local villages. Print off a vineyard page for each player, shuffle a standard deck of playing cards, and grab a writing utensil, then you're ready to go! You will go through quick rounds of drawing two cards from the deck to reveal your options for developing your engine or try to withstand a mob attack and defend your vineyard. Make deals with nearby villages to unlock special abilities, and carefully choose your timing to invest in each aspect of your vineyard to maximize your production and your score. The cards have a unique arc for the game in store for you each time, so be ready to adjust your tactics and try different strategies in this quick-playing and highly replayable print-and-play game!
