A Squatter is the owner of a large grazing farm. This exciting family game, for two to six players, is based on actual livestock farming principles. Those without any knowledge of farming or business learn many basic principles in the normal course of play. The usual playing time ranges from 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours.
Game Summary:
Each player starts with an unimproved Sheep-station fully stocked with 3,000 sheep. With pasture improvement and irrigation the Sheep-station can be stocked with 60,000 sheep. The money needed for pasture improvement, irrigation and other running expenses is earned from players' shrewd selling and buying of sheep and from the sale of their wool. Players encounter droughts, floods and fires during their endeavours to become wealthy squatters. The first player to fully stock their completely irrigated property is the winner.
