Uwe Rosenberg’s Le Havre: The Inland Port Now Available on Steam

Patchwork and Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small enter Steam Greenlight

 

BERLIN — Aug. 29, 2016 — DIGIDICED is thrilled to announce the release of Le Havre: The Inland Port on Steam for Windows, Mac, and Linux at only $6.99 for a limited time. A faithful adaptation of the board game, the Steam version of Le Havre: The Inland Port retains the gritty strategy, resource management, and harbor-building mechanics players loved in the physical release.

DIGIDICED’s conversions of two other Uwe Rosenberg games — Patchwork and Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small — are now listed on Steam Greenlight, with the goal of arriving on Valve’s popular online store in the near future.

In Patchwork, players go head-to-head against quilters all over the world by laying down tiles of different shapes and creating a patchwork of sorts. As a patch is placed, each player moves a little closer to the end of the time-tracking board. Being “first mover” has its advantages, but racing to the end could result in a very rough quilt!

Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small is a competitive 1v1 ranch-themed board game. Players start by sending three workers to a nearby village market to acquire resources/livestock. Each of the 16 locations in the market serves a unique purpose — raising livestock, producing resources, or allowing players to purchase structures. Whether competing against one another or the CPU, players must use their wits to strategically place buildings and acquire (and manage) both resources and livestock. Whoever has the most animals after eight rounds wins!

“Releasing Le Havre: The Inland Port on Steam is a big step for DIGIDICED,” says Felix Dreyfus, CEO of DIGIDICED. “We hope Windows, Mac, and Linux users enjoy our adaptation of Uwe Rosenberg’s harbor management masterpiece. We’ll be on the lookout for feedback as well: We want to make all of our desktop ports — including Patchwork and Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small — worthy of the Steam community.”

Pricing & Availability

Le Havre: The Inland Port is now available on Steam for only $6.99 — 30% off the $9.99 retail price. The sale ends on September 5th.

Seek Farm & Fortune in DIGIDICED’s Digital Adaptation of Uwe Rosenberg’s
Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small

Now available on iOS, Android and Windows 10

 

BERLIN — Aug. 9, 2016 — Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small can now be purchased for Android, iOS, and Windows 10 devices! Developed by boardgame experts DIGIDICED, the digital adaptation of Uwe Rosenberg’s award-winning two-player favorite retails for $4.99 and includes an optional expansion, More Buildings Big & Small.

In Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small, the player is the owner of an old farmstead with a bit of land. However, a neighboring farmer happens to have a competitive streak — so all bets are off! Whether competing against one another or the CPU, players must use their wits to strategically place buildings and acquire and manage both resources and livestock. Whoever has the most animals after eight rounds wins.

Animal husbandry may be key — but before players can start breeding animals, they will first need to make sure their pastures are fenced. (No one wants their animals to escape!) Once fenced, each pasture can support two animals; special structures (such as a trough or stalls) can be purchased from the village market to increase the amount of animals each pasture can hold. Players can also buy additional plots of land to expand their ranch. At breeding time, all that’s left is to own two animals of the same species — and they’ll take care of the rest.

Multiplayer

At its core, Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small is a competitive 1v1 ranch-themed board game. Like previous DIGIDICED releases Patchwork and Le Havre: The Inland Port, the game supports cross-platform multiplayer worldwide — allowing Android, iOS, and Windows 10 players to challenge each other based on skill alone.

“The day has arrived: Our take on Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small can now be experienced by both boardgame fans and newcomers alike,” says Felix Dreyfus, CEO of DIGIDICED. “We’re confident that players will appreciate all the blood, sweat and tears that went into the game. As I’ve mentioned before, working with Uwe Rosenberg on three of his brilliant board games has been the high point of our careers. We’re honoring this partnership with what some may consider our most faithful adaptation of Uwe’s work so far.”

DIGIDICED Set to Release Uwe Rosenberg’s Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small on the App Store, Google Play & Windows Store

 

BERLIN — June 23, 2016 — DIGIDICED is proud to reveal that Uwe Rosenberg’s award-winning two-player board game Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small will soon come to Android, iOS, and Windows devices!

In Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small, the player is the owner of an old farmstead with a bit of land. However, a neighboring farmer happens to have a competitive streak — so all bets are off! Both players (human and CPU) must use their wits to acquire and manage both resources and livestock over eight rounds — while attempting to strategically deploy buildings — in a mad dash for farm and fortune.

Multiplayer

At its core, Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small is a competitive 1v1 ranch-themed board game. Like previous DIGIDICED releases Le Havre: The Inland Port and Patchwork, it supports cross-platform multiplayer worldwide — allowing Android and iOS players to challenge each other based on their skill (and not which device they happen to own at any particular time).

How to Play

In Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small, each player has three workers that are sent to a nearby village market to acquire resources/livestock. Each of the 16 locations in the market serve a unique purpose — raising livestock, producing resources, or allowing the player to purchase structures. Players take turns placing their workers throughout the market, with each location only capable of supporting one worker per round.

Before players can start breeding animals, they will first need to make sure pastures are fenced. (No one wants their animals to escape!) Once fenced, each pasture can support two animals; special structures (such as a trough or stalls) can be purchased from the village market to increase the amount of animals each pasture can hold. Players can also buy additional plots of land to expand their ranch. At breeding time, all that’s left is to place two animals of the same species in the same pasture — and they’ll take care of the rest 🙂

“We’re thrilled to be working with Uwe Rosenberg once again,” says Felix Dreyfus, CEO of DIGIDICED. “In Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small, every decision matters — even if players can’t quite finish their opposing farmhand with a single blow! Adapting Le Havre: The Inland Port and Patchwork in cooperation with Uwe Rosenberg was a dream come true for everyone on the team. Agricola: All Creatures Big & Small is a great license to work with, and it only strengthens our partnership.”
