Coney is a board game released in 2024 for 1–4 players, 20–35 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Giampaolo Razzino and its main mechanics are Hand Management, Set Collection, and End Game Bonuses.
In Coney, you play the role of a rabbit farmer! Each player must set up their own rabbit farm by placing rabbit cards in a 3x3 grid according to the unique placement rules on the cards themselves. At the end of the game, you gain victory points (VP) shown on the top right of each rabbit card in your farm. You also receive VP for each card with end-of-game bonuses, store icons, and remaining extra resources, but you might also gain negative points. The farmer with the most points wins! —description from the publisher
Coney supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Coney is 20–35 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Coney for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Coney has a complexity rating of 2.8 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
