Oh no—Farmer Fridolin’s animals have escaped the barn! In HABA’s Farm Gang, kids team up with Farmer Fridolin and his trusty sheepdog Lilli to guide the runaway animals safely home. This cooperative dice-and-action game is packed with excitement, suspense, and lots of giggles as players try to keep every animal from wandering off the farm. With high-quality wooden figures, a modular path, and simple rules, Farm Gang is the perfect family game for little animal lovers aged 4 and up.
Why it’s great for kids:
-
Encourages teamwork: Players work with each other—not against—to save the day!
-
Builds coordination & decision-making: Kids choose together which animals to move, promoting communication and strategic thinking.
-
Boosts color recognition & early logic: Dice and cards introduce simple cause-and-effect choices.
-
Engaging pretend play: Children love helping Farmer Fridolin and Lilli, making gameplay feel like a real farm adventure.
-
Durable & tactile: Sturdy wooden animal figures offer hands-on fun for little learners.
How to play:
- Place the barn, path strips, and all 8 wooden animals on their starting spaces.
- On your turn, do TWO actions:
Action 1: Roll the die- Color rolled: All animals on that color space move 1 space away from the barn.
- Farmer Fridolin rolled: Players discuss and choose one animal to move back one space.
- Lilli the sheepdog rolled: Players choose one animal to return all the way to the barn (starting spot).
- Action 2: Draw a card
- Perform the action shown—some help you, some make animals inch toward escape!
- Animals sent back to the barn can still run away again, depending on later rolls or cards.
- Winning the game: If the deck runs out and no animals have escaped, everyone wins together!
- Losing the game: If even one animal leaves the final path space and escapes, you lose together—better luck next time, farmers!
