Awesome videos. Articulate and very helpful. The rules seem to be written for people who already understand the basic concept of the game or, perhaps, I just wasn't in the proper mindset when I sat down to read them. Either way I really appreciate the time you put into explaining set up and the basics turn sequences. Just set the game up to do a solo run through so I can break it out next game night.

Ken here!
I agree that the rules are kind of hard to understand if no one else is around to show you what's-what. Glad to help an Agricola fan in training!
It seems that this video starts in the middle of the first turn and jumps to turn nine all of a sudden. I would of hoped to have seen 2-3 entire turns to really get the flow of the game :/

Sorry, we generally try to do only 2 or 3 turns per game for the sake of brevity; an entire game of Agricola would be probably around 2 hours, which is a bit much for example play, and we tend to select at least 1 turn further along so that viewers can see some of the end-game rules and strategies.
Still, this should give you a pretty good idea how to play, and we're always happy to answer any questions you might have

What he said.
We have considered doing some full play-throughs before, but this would be a rather hefty game for that.
