Agricola Vegeemeeples -194 piece Euro Token Set Review

  • 186 wooden tokens, great for use with almost any "Euro" style board game!
  • Great for Agricola, Stone Age, Kingsburg or many other games!
  • Made of 100% real wood!
Check out the details of this amazing set! 1. 33 Wood-shaped dark-brown pieces. These wood tokens will be of simple design but still look like a piece of dark brown wood or a branch from a tree (stick). 2. 27 dark red pieces. These will be a brick and basically a brick shape. It will work as a brick in most games, or could also be considered a clay. 3. 15 light white counters. These generic white food or cat-tail markers will be great for general token replacement. They will be fatter on the bottom and skinnier on the top than the grain tokens but of a similiar look. 4. 20 grey stone counters. They will have a granite/ dark gray color to them. 5. 27 yellow wheat counters. These will be yellow like bundles and stand up by themselves. 6. 18 orange carrots or food counters. These will look like carrots, orange and just carrot shaped. 7. 36 additional food markers. These will be in 3 varieties, a simple bread, 12 of these. Also 12 Fish tokens (wooden, fish shaped), and 12 chicken leg / drum stick shaped pieces of meat. 8. 12 Gold markers. These trapazoid shaped gold markers are great for all those euro games that require gold of any sort. These will look like a real gold brick in terms of shape and not a lame yellow cube like most games have in them. The total number of pieces then is 33 wood, 27 bricks, 15 white tokens, 20 stone, 27 wheat, 12 gold, 18 carrots and 36 additional food (12 each of bread, fish and drum-sticks/chicken leg). Total of 188 pieces all together. So what can you do with this set? Many kids say they are very very excited to play Farm with them, only with smaller, high-quality wooden components. They will also be a good generic token replacement set, you could use them for Stone Age, Powergird, or just about any other "euro" game. Use the wood to power your Powergrid factories! Use all of the Stone, Gold and Wood for Kingsburg! Use these for Agricola! Try them for any other game!

  • Contestants can compete against a home Mob of other players, or be in the home mob
  • Includes DVD game and player cards
  • Play with 1 to 7 players
The 1 Vs. 100 DVD Board Game by Mattel is based on the hit NBC TV show. Ideal for ages 13 and up, this interactive game allows players to compete against the Mob as they answer trivia questions that range from easy to difficult.

How it's Played
In this DVD game, host Bob Saget asks players multiple-choice trivia questions, as they compete against 100 Mob members. The object of the game is to eliminate the entire Mob and win up to ,000,000 in pretend money. The host asks the player and the Mob the same multiple-choice trivia question. If the player gets it right, they win money for each Mob member that answered incorrectly, plus eliminates those Mob members from the game. If the player gets the question wrong, the Mob splits the winnings and the game is over. At certain points, the player will have opportunities to stop the game and leave with their winnings or risk all of their winnings and play for more money. This game is fun for the whole family and provides hours of intense entertainment for one to seven players.

The Money or the Mob
Taking on the mob is no easy task. Interactive mob members challenge contestants, taunt them, and give advice that may or may not be correct. For family fun, players can also compete against a home mob made up of other players or choose to be in the home mob. Just like on the popular TV show, the money increases the more questions that are answered correctly, but so does the pressure! To stay in the game, the player must answer every trivia question right. But the most important question is, does the contestant want the money or the Mob?

What's in the Box
DVD game and player cards.



This TV show game features interactive mob members that challenge and taunt the contestants. View larger.
