Take a trick
Follow the led crop. The highest trump—or highest card of the led crop—wins.
A card game of collective labor & private survival
Kolkhoz
Take tricks. Work the fields. Hide what you can.
Across a Five-Year Plan, every worker contributes to the collective—but only the cards in your own Plot and Cellar will win you the game. Finish fields for rewards, avoid requisition, and watch for the Saboteur.
3–4 playersOne collective, several private agendas.
About 30 minutesFive years, four tricks at a time.
40 / 32 hoursFour-player and three-player field quotas.
Five-Year PlanFour full years and one final famine.
The central tension
Work together. Score alone.
Each trick becomes a small negotiation. Its winner assigns every played card to the fields—but only to crops that appeared in the trick. Complete a quota and the Brigadier claims its reward. Leave fields unfinished and the State takes its share.
Assign the workers
The winner sends every card to any field whose crop appeared in that trick.
Face requisition
Medal holders lose one card per Medal, then compare once per failed field.
The four crops
Every suit is a field.
Printed rank is both work value and final score. A worker may be assigned away from their own crop, but only when the destination crop appeared in the trick.
Wheat
One of four crop suits.
Sunflower
One of four crop suits.
Potato
One of four crop suits.
Beet
One of four crop suits.

The Saboteur
A rank-0 trump that can poison any field.
The Saboteur counts as every crop. It always follows suit, makes every crop legal during assignment, and contributes zero hours. Any field containing it fails at requisition—even if that field already reached quota and paid its reward.
