Barley & Rye is a strategy and management game for two players.
Participate in the friendly rivalry between two villages dedicated to the dual tradition of brewing beer and baking bread...
Founded on the fertile lands of an ancient monastery, two villages have preserved the dual tradition of brewing quality beer and baking quality bread. While sharing fields and resources, they continue to compete friendly and proudly to see who will produce the best product.
Each player represents one of the villages. Over six years, which alternate between fruitful years and drought years, you must harmonize your harvesting and resource storage work while producing beer and bread, selling them for coins, and improving your facilities.
However, to win, you must maintain a balance between your bakery and brewery products. Indeed, after the sixth year, you only score the coins collected from the type of commodity (beer or bread) for which you earned the fewest points. The village with the highest score wins the game.
