Players start the game with two family members ling in a two-room wooden hut. In each round, each member of their family may choose one action. If they collect wood and reed, they can extend their hut and then add to their family. Family growth allows addictional actions, but has the disadvantage that more food must be produced. And to get food, the players plow fields and plany seeds. The planted grain and vegetables are harvested during the Harvest, when animals breed as wll. To raise animals, pastures must be fenced to allow sheep, wild boar and cattle to graze.

Occupations or Improvemnts can ensure a family's upkeep. Each of these cards allows the player a small advantage in the game.

Victory Points are earned when platers renovate their wooden hut to a clay hut and later even a stone housr. But everything else to do with balancing food requirements or making every day life a little more comfortable can earn Victory Points - especially Family growth. 

Each games uses a different froup of the 166 different Occupation cards and 146 different Improvements, ensuring that no two games are exactly alike. Additional rules for a Solo game and a shortened Family game ensure appropriate challenges for each gaming table.
