About the game
In English, the term "Crop Rotation" means Rotation of Cultures, which is nothing more than alternating planting of different crops to benefit the soil. In Crop Rotation, you'll grow beans, corn, and soybeans, and to win, you'll need to harvest more than your opponents. For this you need to complete the random patterns of the goal cards and score. You have to be smart and not let your opponents harvest before you. Each turn random events can also help you, allowing you to switch position crops or even perform a burn to free up space on the board.

Questions and answers
Crop Rotation supports 2–4 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 Crop Rotation is 20–40 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 Crop Rotation for ages 8 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.
Crop Rotation has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a 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.
