SETUP
Setup is fairly simple. First, split the deck into three different sections, sunrise, noon, and sunset. Shuffle each deck to insure everything is mixed well. Next, stack the decks with sunset being on the bottom, then noon, then sunrise on top. Deal each player one card and it is ready!
GAMEPLAY
To begin the game the first player must be chosen. This is simple, as the first player is the player who most recently ate a strawberry. During a player’s turn, they may draw two cards from the deck or one card from the compost pile. Players may play one card and discard the other into the compost pile. This concludes the player’s turn, and it continues on to the next player.
When playing a card, it must lay on top of another card, covering at least a quarter of the card. Cards are placed vertically, creating your own garden as the game progresses. When there are no more cards to draw from, the game comes to an end.
At the end of the game, all players must tally their points. Follow the directions on the player guide to determine how many points each design counts for. The player with the most points, and thus, the most intricate garden, wins the game!
END OF GAME
The game ends when there are no more cards left in the deck to draw from. The player with the most points wins the game!
