About Schweinebande

Schweinebande (literally "Gang of Pigs") was published in February 2010 by Hans im Glück. The board depicts a cattle market, on which pigs, goats, donkeys, chickens, and other animals are offered for sale. Each player tries to position his farmers strategically in order to obtain the most favorable prices, or to block his competitors. Once animals are acquired, they must be fed every round.
