A Question of the spike is a play by Jeffrey D. Allers and originates from the Pegasus Publishing. This is the smartest farmers harvest the biggest potatoes. So it is possible, once the native plants potatoes, corn, canola, sugar beet and wheat harvest.

The first impression of the game is hard to put into words. First, the game looked to me as a cheap copy of the dome show "Farmer Wants a Wife" and therefore less appealing. When you open the box onto a schedule like the leaps forward, remembers the first like a game from times gone by. The distribution of points and a color bar, a formal push the parallels on the roulette tables. Visually the game is really not a highlight, but we now come to the essence, the game itself

In a huge repertoire of dots are printed next to a warehouse and a bar area.

The acreage consists of individual fields on which is shown each one of the five crops. There are different sized mounting plates, which consist of one to two fields. Of these, each player receives five individual plates, with each crop plant, and three of the mixed double stack on the hand.

In the warehouse, however, farms and houses can be purchased.

The first player starts with the laying of a plate. It should be noted that if this goes on every field of plant species. As the game progresses, different levels arise from the different uses of each field. A tile may not be inclined, however, that is placed in two planes. As an interim measure may serve a single plate. If the height difference is greater than a level that is not offset this without difficulty.

Designed for the fields will award points. One must here, however, decide whether you want to collect Farmpunkte in the warehouse, or would like to log up the victory points for the fields. Farmpunkte determined by specific points, which are painted on the gelegteFeld. For the Farmpunkte you can get it at the end of the game winning extra point and build farms to get the extra points in each round. The victory points are calculated on the basis of all the adjacent fields with the same crop plant.

After each turn, is padded at the end of the hand back on three double-crop fields. It can be grown up to a field, whether one or-span.

The fade at the beginning of tremendous impression is deceptive. The result is totally simple rules, despite a race in crop production, which requires a lot of tactical skill. If you want to collect many VPs, shall also be a perfect template for the successor to an even bigger box build. The initial impression of a gambling while it can not be completely revised, but there is plenty of room for strategy fans, because the crop field is smaller than it appears. It comes very quickly in the way, so that a mutual fret not absent. I think the luck factor is lower than for example in Carcassonne. Particularly noteworthy is the very good stuff in the game. The plates are made of very thick material and the houses and Scoring Markers are made of high quality wood. A question everyone should have the ear of corn once played, but be careful ... risk of addiction ...
