In this smooth bluffing game, chickens, geese and other poultry that approach the feeder at the right time can get a piece of the pie. The same applies to the foxes, but they prefer to outwit the poultry...
Graantje de Voorste is especially suitable for players who like bluffs and unexpected twists. Because they play a face-down card at the same time each round, they have to try to estimate what the other players are doing. This can lead to finding food easily, but also to dividing it or even fighting over it. This bluffing game is easy to learn and therefore fun for the whole family!
Each round, six cages are filled with grain. Each player then chooses a card from their hand and places it face down in front of them. The color of the card determines which coop the poultry or fox goes to. The number on the card indicates the point value of the animal. This is important if several birds go to the same cage or if a fox gets hold of such an animal.
A bird that goes to a cage alone takes away all the grains. If there are several birds, they can share everything with each other, but if there is one that doesn't like sharing it, they all roll a die and add the result to their point value. Whoever has the highest result gets to have all the grains. A fox that goes to a cage alone gets nothing (it doesn't like grain), but if there is poultry there, it eats it all. If several foxes go to the same cage, they have to roll the dice. Foxes are selfish animals and don't share anything on principle!
Once the last grains of wheat have been strewn in the cages, the last round begins. Whoever ultimately scores the most points with their collected grains and poultry cards is the winner.
