Agricola &ndas🍷h; the legendary euro style farming game by Uwe Rosenberg – just announced a zombie horror take on the original game. Agricola: Dead Harvest will be heading to Gamefound crowdfunding platform in 2026, and will be an all-new standalone game, rather than an expansion to the original strategic farming board game.

In my opinion, Agricola is one of those games that should be sitting in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best board games list, and if Rosenberg manages to pull off a farming game that captures my obsession with zombie games (澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:COD: Zombies is the only shooter I play nowadays), I'll beﷺ over the harvest moon.

You can get the original right now, which is currently down from $64.99, in case you wanted to test out the iconic farming board game before you get your work-worn hands on this weird and wonderful new standalone horror game. The 澳ꦦ洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Agricola 15th A🍬nniversary Limited Edition is still on offerও, too, if you want something a bit more meat🍸y.

, but pairing farming games with zombie survival makes a hell of a lot more sense than you think. Video games have been leaning on this as a crossover forever. I mean, what else are you going to do in the Zombie apocalypse but settle down on a farm and defend it steadfastly from the shambꦦling undead?

And is decapitating zombies with a scythe not the most metal aestheﷺtic you could ever dream of?

The recently dropped on the Awaken Realms YouTube channel which, while it doesn't ♓go into a lot of detail around the game's expected mechanical changes, it does have a wonderfully haunting voiceover 🌱that makes me think we'll be getting some form of tower defense mechanics tied in with the original game system.

The trailer also shows off some of the incredible artwork we're looking at from the upcoming zombie farming game. Where artists are concerned, Pamela Łuniewska and Patryk Jędraszek who worked on Agricola Special Edition will be lending their artistry, as well as Jakub Dzikowsk and Ewa Labak who've both turned their hand to some of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nemesis board games.

As far as I can see, Dead Harvest is looking like it'll be one gorgeous, rural bloodbath with an interesting twist on the original game's mechanics. Hopefully we're not just looking at an undead reskin. You can keep an eye on the page if this kind of game gets you riled up. I know it does me, and we gotta stick together whenཧ the dead rise. Build society bac🅠k up again. You with me?
