RULES:
The Objective of the Game is to get the most CA$H by turning SEEDS to PLANTS, PLANTS to POUNDS, and POUNDS to CASH.
Roll the DICE, move the number of spaces. Player can only move forward. Read the square you land on and do what it says.
You can buy a MEDICAL CANNABIS CARD if you land on a Rx square. Your Rx is good for the whole game. You retain it when played.
Land on HARVEST to turn your PLANTS to POUNDS-Land on SELL to turn POUNDS to CASH.
Land in the FARM SUPPLY to buy SEEDS 10 for $100 and PLANTS for $100 each. $2000 spending limit each turn.
Player has the option to Harvest, Sell or Turn Seeds to Plants and may wait for a bigger return.
When you land on FACTOR X – draw a FACTOR X CARD and read it out loud.
When you use a RESOURCE CARD turn it in to the Discard Pile – you can only use ONE Resource Card per turn
ROLL a 1 or 6 to GET OUT OF JAIL OR PAY $2000.
Wait in the square next to the JAIL for your NEXT TURN to move forward.
If you get near the end of the game with plants to Harvest, go in the Harvest-Go-Round for guaranteed Harvest.
If you get a penalty card (like LOSE 10 PLANTS) and do not have enough to pay the penalty lose UP TO that amount or LOSE NOTHING IF YOU HAVE NOTHING.
Be a BROTHER – Keep it on the UP-AND-UP (be honest), cut a guy some SLACK and CHILL. It’s all for FUN!
Game ENDS when one player reaches the DISPENSARY. Exact Roll Required to END the Game. (While waiting for an exact roll you cannot re-do whatever the square has on it.)
The Dispensary pays $1500 per pound to add to your total.
Players can PASS UP the Dispensary and keep playing for more CASH instead of ending the game – (This is helpful when another player has more cash)
Any Player who passes START gets another 7 RESOURCE CARDS and $1000 CASH.
When the game ENDS – Each players ADDS UP THEIR CA$H – Player with the most CA$H WINS!!!
TIPS and TRICKS:
The fun part about playing WEED the game is that it’s different every time. Here are some strategies to increase your chances of getting the most money in the game.
Buy as many seeds as you can early in the game. Seeds have a higher return than buying plants ($100 worth of seeds can turn into 5 plants which would cost $500).
Late in the game – buy plants instead of seeds. To convert seeds to plants – you have to land on the right square. You don’t want to get to the end of the game with seeds – they are not worth anything.
Always buy a prescription – it will keep you out of jail.
If you can afford it – pay the $2000 to get out of jail so you can get back to the game.
Spend the $2000 limit in the Farm Store every time you can.
Don’t give up – it can take 10 extra rolls to end the game when someone gets close to the Dispensary. Keep playing hard – you can still win the game.
Lots of bad stuff can happen in the game but it does not always determine the outcome. You can lose everything on one turn and still wind up growing a ton of plants for lots of cash. There’s always hope.
You can agree to remove the Factor X card that says Feds Bust You-Lose all your Weed and Cash or don't your option.
