Smash Up turns over the wheel to all of you! Through a huge nomination and run-off process, players from all over the world helped choose the four factions that will take part in Smash Up: It's Your Fault!. The winning four factions have been announced as Sharks, Superheroes, Greek Myth, and Dragons.
“My friends, I have alarming news. The Emperor and his army are trapped in Kellar’s Keep, the underground bastion of the fortress of Karak Varn. This great Dwarven stronghold lies deep within the heart of the World’s Edge Mountains. The great book Loretome has revealed a secret passage to me that has been long forgotten. It will be your task to find this passage, known as Grin’s Crag, and bring the Emperor to safety.
The fortress is well defended, but I fear that time is against us. The Emperor’s army weakens with starvation while the enemy grows stronger by the day. You must find the four pieces of Grin’s map, that are scattered throughout the halls, if you are to locate the path to Kellar’s Keep. You must not fail, for should you do so, our cause will be lost. It is up to you, brave Heroes, to rescue the Emperor.”

In Bohnanza, you plant, then harvest bean cards in order to earn coins. Each player starts with a hand of random bean cards, and each card has a number on it corresponding to the number of that type of beans in the deck. Unlike in most other cards games, you can't rearrange the order of cards in hand, so you must use them in the order that you've picked them up from the deck — unless you can trade them to other players, which is the heart of the game.
On a turn, you must plant the first one or two cards in your hand into the "fields" in front of you. Each field can hold only one type of bean, so if you must plant a type of bean that's not in one of your fields, then you must harvest a field to make room for the new arrival. This usually isn't good! Next, you reveal two cards from the deck, and you can then trade these cards as well as any card in your hand for cards from other players. You can even make future promises for cards received right now! After all the trading is complete — and all trades on a turn must involve the active player — then you end your turn by drawing cards from the deck and placing them at the back of your hand.
When you harvest beans, you receive coins based on the number of bean cards in that field and the "beanometer" for that particular type of bean. Flip over 1-4 cards from that field to transform them into coins, then place the remainder of the cards in the discard pile. When the deck runs out, shuffle the discards, playing through the deck two more times. At the end of the game, everyone can harvest their fields, then whoever has earned the most coins wins.
Bohnanza: 25 Jahre-Edition is a special 25th anniversary edition of the game that contains a new bean type ("Elsterbohne"; magpie bean) and comes with three variant games, one of which will use a collectible coin packaged in the box.
