About the game
Welcome to the land of the blue agave, where the town of Tequila in Jalisco, Mexico reigns supreme as the internationally recognized home of the famous drink. In Tequila, a roll and write game for 1 to 4 players with a medium complexity and a playing time of 40 minutes, you'll compete to become the top producer of this coveted drink by managing your very own tequila farm, its fields, and resources. Over the course of 8 rounds, players will need to earn prestige points by skillfully managing their tequila farms and agave fields. As each round begins, the starting player rolls the dice, marking the available actions and resources for all players. Then, simultaneously, each player uses the dice, along with a third die of their choosing, to place fences in their fields to gather resources or construct new buildings to expand their farms. But the game doesn't end there! Players can also take additional free actions, such as selling their products at the city market or using their resources to produce different varieties of tequila, as long as they have the necessary buildings. The player with the most prestige points at the end of the game will be crowned the ultimate tequila producer! —description from the designer

Questions and answers
Tequila 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 Tequila is 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 Tequila 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.
Tequila has a complexity rating of 2.7 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
