Bohnanza: The Duel

Bohnanza: The Duel is a variant of the popular bean trading game Bohnanza designed exclusively for two players.

In this exciting bean duel, players grow different varieties of beans and harvest them to earn gold coins.

What was that thing about the gift horse? In a new twist in this two-player variant of Bohnanza, each duelist can give their opponent beans they don't want – to make life harder for their opponent, if possible.

Players also vie for Bohnus cards, which offer even more gold coins when their requirements are satisfied. So both duelists need to keep a vigilant eye on the other player’s bean fields.

Give as good as you get in Bohnanza: The Duel, there can be only one winner!

Game Play

Both duelists have bean field mats in front of them on which to plant their beans. Between the players is a row of eight Gift cards, while each player holds five hand cards and three Bohnus cards with secret objectives.

You may plant more than one type of bean in the same field, as long as it has the same number or the next highest number than the one before. When harvesting, use the Beanometer of the last card you planted to determine how many coins the field yields.

Each turn, take the following four actions in order:

1. Plant the first card in your hand, then optionally plant the second card in your hand.
2. Draw three bean cards and gift one bean card. The gift can be one you drew or from your hand.
3. Plant drawn and gifted beans.
4. Draw two bean cards and possibly Bohnus cards.
