Fences

Fences is a tile-laying board game where players take on the role of farmers aiming to construct pens for their animals. Each turn, a player places one of their two available tiles, which may contain fields for cows, meadows for sheep, or mud holes for pigs. After placing a tile, the player can choose to claim an unclaimed field. If a field is enclosed, it is scored accordingly. The game concludes after the last tile is placed, and the player with the most points wins.

Key Features:

• Tile Placement: Strategically place tiles to build pens and enclose animals.
• Field Claiming: Decide whether to claim unclaimed fields after each tile placement.
• Scoring: Earn points by enclosing animals, with additional points for enclosing only one type of animal in a pen.
• Player Interaction: Influence opponents by placing animals into their fields to prevent them from scoring bonuses.
