☕ If you want to support the channel: ❤️‍ To support the project: ⭐ Website: br In Formosa Tea, you and the other players are striving to become the owners of the most prestigious tea farm. Wisely deploy your workers to pick the most suitable tea leaves, produce tea while upgrading your tea processing technology, and sell to domestic and international markets.br br Specifically, in each turn, your workers may take one of 5 possible actions:br br * Send a worker to harvest tea leavesbr * Send a worker to a tea factory to process tea leavesbr * Retrieve a worker from the tea factory after tea processing is completedbr * Send a worker to sell tea in the domestic marketbr * Send a worker to sell tea to international merchantsbr br How is this different from other worker placement games? Well, a couple of particular mechanisms stand out: One we like to nickname “worker push-ment” - that is, when more workers (from any player) are sent to harvest tea in the same row, the tea masters on the corresponding tea processing track can take additional processing steps. These processing steps improve the quality of the tea and are the actual steps taken in the real-life tea production industry.br br The second mechanism is that when their tea master is pushed, players have a choice to take those additional steps to improve the tea’s quality or send their tea master to the end and rush the production so that their tea master is available to take more actions in the same round. As a result, some players may take more actions than other players, potentially trading off higher tea quality for quicker production cycles (i.e., more turns).br br As a result, players need to plan ahead on the type and quality of tea they plan to make.
