Description

The feel-good game to show off your succulents!

Welcome to my little shop!

Im Gretchen, and I love succulents. Im happy to help you gather these wonderful survival artists! With some skill, your collection will flourish - and who knows? Maybe youll end up with the most impressive one of all!

In Gretchens Garden, players compete to select the most precious succulents for their very own collection! You dont even need a green thumb to win this leicht verständlichen Tableau-Builder.

Over the course of 12 rounds, you'll optimize your collection by adding extraordinary pots and magnificent succulents while braving the weather. This might require snatching the odd leave from your opponents plant. Take good care of your plants so they can grow, thrive and maybe even flower! The player with the trendiest collection (and most points) wins!

Timing is everything theres only one flower per color in play. And watch out: your fellow plant lovers are eagerly eyeing your plants. Will someone swoop in and snip a cutting just as your plant is ready to bloom? Dont forget to mind the species either! Whether its Aloe Vera, Baby Sun Rose, Snake Plant, or Ribbon Plant, each has unique needs and points to match.
