About this game

After the plague, rebuild your village by drafting skilled craftspeople from the road and chaining their production to create economic engines. Villagers is a card-drafting game where each villager needs specific predecessors in your tableau: a blacksmith needs a miner, who needs a prospector. Building these chains efficiently generates income and victory points. Two market days provide scoring checkpoints. Elegant, accessible, and plays beautifully solo.
