Monster in the Cabbages is a quick-playing dice game for two to five cabbage harvesters. Your goal is to harvest as many cabbages as you can. However. there’s a Monster in the cabbage field that needs to be fed. If everyone ignores the Monster, it’ll get so hungry that it’ll eat everyone (Everyone loses the game if this happens.). That means that you have to balance your need to harvest cabbages with the threat of letting the Monster in the Cabbages eat everyone.
Monster in the Cabbages uses about 8 six-sided dice, a cup, and pencil and paper. A four-player game takes about 25 minutes to play. Monster in the Cabbages is appropriate for ages 10 and older.
