Farmer
Let's brainstorm an idea for a 3-hour Stardew Valley Party game with 4 computers around a table. I don't know a whole lot about multi-player, so correct me if I have misunderstood anything. To be edited based on suggestions.

1. Equipment:
  • 4 computers with Stardew Valley
  • "Role" cards: either four or eight cards (?) players can either choose or draw randomly that define their roles and achievements.
  • "Helper" cards: Four identical cards that outline the ways all players can support the "Role" cards in their spare time.
  • Score sheet to document the group's achievements for comparison with "next time".
2. Play:
  • Test computers and connections and resolve technical issues. Create farm and farmers.
  • Distribute a Helper card to each player.
  • Distribute Role cards by draw (or by agreement)
  • Start new farm. Start real world clock at 6:00 a.m. on Spring 1. End after 3-hours.
