This is Barnyard Brawl.

It’s a board game I made with two friends (that we tried getting Hasbro to buy). In this game, there are no winners, only one loser, and that loser gets eaten for dinner. See the stop-motion promo/instruction video here. And come find me if you want to play the real version.


For a walk through, scroll through these GIFs below.

Sheep: It's my smoke break, and I'm stressed today. The Farmer's coming soon, and he's going to eat whatever animal's on the Chopping Block.

I need to make sure it isn't the sheep.

How's it go down? Pick an animal.

Three of them start in the pen, and three of them start in your hand. Keep your hand secret.

You spin the weathervane and go to the location it lands on.

You swap an animal in your hand with an animal at the location.

You have to make sure your animal isn't on the Chopping Block.

If three of your animal are on the Chopping Block, you lose, and the Farmer eats you for dinner.

Oh, and there's a Trick Trunk. 

If you land on that, you take a card, and you can play that card at the start of any future turn.

The smart thing to do is to team up against whoever is on the Chopping Block.

I would set aside 15 to 20 minutes to play. Four players are needed. 

You need to fight to survive. This is Barnyard Brawl. Get ready to fight.
