About this game

Plant beans, harvest beans, trade beans with everyone at the table. The twist: you cannot rearrange your hand, so the order you draw cards is the order you must plant them. Desperate to get rid of that stink bean blocking your hand? Trade it away, beg someone to take it, promise future favors. The mandatory trading turns every round into a chaotic, hilarious negotiation. Simple enough for anyone, deep enough that experienced players consistently win. A genuine classic that has been a staple since 1997.
