The 3 Little Pigs in the Wild West

Your brothers have gotten themselves in a heap of trouble with the Sheriff Wolf. He’s seen fit to toss all of them in jail while you were trying to build up a farm. Guess you’ll have to bust them out. If the Wolf finds your brothers though, he’ll toss them straight back in the clink. Get creative with your moves to get your farm built before your opponents. Will the Wolf be fooled if 3 pigs stack up in a poncho and make the rounds completing tasks?

In 3 Pigs in a Poncho, players will move their dice around the action rondel completing the action matching their die value then re-rolling for their next turn. 3 Pigs is at its core a farming game. Players use actions to build their hideout which gives them bonuses from bricks, sticks, and straw. But building has to be done with care, straw can stack on anything, but sticks only stack on sticks and bricks and bricks only stack on bricks.

Players also have an opportunity to raise livestock, building them stables and if they have a pair and an empty stable, they can get baby Unicorns, Llamas, and Cows!

Players also try to keep their fairy tale pals safe from the Big Bad Wolf Sheriff, Red Riding Hood, Billy goat gruff and Puss in Boots need your help!

Players will get to be strategic with their dice in that they can space the 3 pigs out on the rondel, but doing so makes them susceptible to being arrested by the Wolf who is also moving around the rondel. Or they can stack their piggies, less opportunity to get exactly the action they want, but less likely to be arrested also!

The game plays until a player has completed all 3 sections of their hideout. Then players score on their sheets. The game is a roll and write in that the players roll dice and mark their player sheet based on the actions they completed.
