Want to learn Fromage? Follow Along Our YouTube! Fromage is designed by Matthew O'Malley and Ben Rosset, it's illustrated by Pavel Zhovba, and published by @r2igames Fromage is a simultaneous worker placement game, in which you'll place workers to make cheese and gather resources. The catch? The board will rotate each turn and your workers will return back to your supply only when they face you at the start of the turn. As you take better actions, workers make take longer to return to you, and you'll also want to be mindful of each Venue as cheese scores differently in each quadrant. Will you be the best cheese maker? Question of the day: What is your favorite type of cheese? #Fromage #FromageGame #HowtoPlayFromage #BoardGames
