When Pigs Shall Fly társasjáték

Angol leírás

Just before the days of aviation, human flight was a rumor- a whisper in the wind. Somewhere, someone was aiming for the clouds. Hoping to take advantage of these rumors and boost its image, your city is planning a contest: build a flying machine, and find someone foolish enough to fly it.

Now, you know a publicity stunt when you hear one, but the idea has intrigued you. You may be a humble farmer, but you have assets that others may not- a working knowledge of mechanics, determination, a hard work ethic, and… animals. Lots of animals. A grin slowly spreads on your face. “When pigs shall fly, they say,” you mutter to yourself. “Well then, let’s take to the skies!”

When Pigs Shall Fly is a family weight dice-drafting game in which players prepare for the city’s flight contest by researching the importance of the various theories of flight, designing a flying craft, training a pig to pilot their craft, and improving their craft’s materials to make it as light as possible. Along the way, they must also try to generate publicity and utilize the other farm animals to help them in their quest for aviation greatness. When the big day arrives, players will have a chance to see the fruits of their labor by flying their craft in the contest, and hopefully, become locally known as the farmer with their head in the clouds!
