Who goes first in Farben?
Stronghold Games / Edition Spielwiese English rules, 2018
The most colorfully dressed player is the starting player.
Rule details
That player reveals a Word card; everyone then chooses a Color card simultaneously.
The player to the left of the starting player tells the first story, and the starting-player role moves clockwise after the round.
If there’s a tie
The cited starting-player instruction does not specify a tie-break. We don’t infer one.
