PIG GROVE

WALKING BOARD-GAME ABOUT THE TRAGEDY OF COMMONS

10-20 players  |  age 13+  |  45-90 minutes

Local farmers feed their pigs in a public grove. Will there be enough apples for everyone? Who will get rich and who will lose the game? Pig Grove is an educational economic game about scarcity and collaboration, including a critical reflection on the tragedy of commons and a humorous look at human nature.
