    • Simple. Beautiful. Easy to teach and learn.
Style: Herbaceous
I got this game mostly for solo play, so I can’t say much about how it is to play with others, but this game is simple and beautiful and relaxing as a solo game. I leave the cards out so they are always handy and will play a round or two when I have 15 min to kill and want to avoid an urge to scroll Facebook or read too much news. It is a super simple set building game that can be played casually or super strategically (I would imagine) if you are a competitive board gamer who spends as much time looking at other people’s business as you do your own. The herb planting theme is well executed, family friendly (for young and old) and also captures the spirit of neighborly competition that can sometimes happen among gardeners. This game is utterly perfect in it’s simplicity. It a great starter/filler game for an organized game night. Also perfect as a fast, accessible game during family gatherings when explaining complicated rules is too much. Love! Turns are simple and fast: All you do is draw a card and place it either in YOUR garden or the Community garden. You draw a second card and must place it in whichever garden you DIDN’T place the first card in. Then the next person does the same. At the beginning of each turn (before drawing cards as above) players can opt to “pot” plants —which is basically collecting herb cards from their own garden and the community garden to create the biggest sets you can that are: all the same kind/one each of as many herbs as possible /as many matching pairs as possible. Bigger sets give more points (scoring is right on the “pot” cards). For SOLO play, it is just a beat your own score (I know some find that unsatisfying). On each turn you draw 3 cards (one at a time) and you choose between playing it in your garden, the community garden or discard pile. There is also a limit to how big (number of cards) the community garden can be. ... show more

    • Herbal remedy for gaming maladies.
Style: Herbaceous
Herbs... Mmmmm... Herb biscuit.... Ahhhh mmm. Oh anyways. Herbaceous is a set collection game with great art and simple mechanics. Each player has a variety of containers to plant with various herbs. Each container has a requirement to plant (all of one kind of herb, pairs of herbs, all different etc.) players can first decide to plant herbs into a container (each pot may only be potted once) by taking any combination of Herbs from their personal gardens and the public garden. (For the first round there is no potting herbs) Then they may draw a card from the central pile and decide whether to place it in your personal garden or to place it in the public garden. After the first draw, the player draws again and places the second card into the other garden.(I.E. If your first draw goes into the community garden the second draw goes into your personal garden) Game end is triggered by the first person to plant all of their pots or the center pile to run dry then players each have an opportunity to plant any If players are the first one to plant the three special herbs into the glass jar they receive the Herb biscuit and five extra points at the end of the game. We love this little game. Beth Sobel's art is fantastic. ... show more

    • Easy, Light, Fun!
Style: Herbaceous
Absolutely love this game! It’s very easy to play but it is really fun! It can be played over and over as well. I like a variety of games, including Jaipur, Lost Cities, Patchwork, Cottage Garden, Loot, Ticket to Ride, 10 Days in Africa, Tikal, Karuba.... if you're anything like me, you might like Herbaceous too! This game would be a good “warm up” game for a night of boardgaming, moving from simple to complex games throughout the night. It would also be a good game for two, a “go to” family game, or something you could play with Grandma! The box is also fairly small so it would be a good travel game. It’s about the size of a thick paperback book. I’m very happy with my purchase and interested in other games from this company. They seem pretty new (I have no idea) but it looks like they have a promising future. ... show more

    • Fun and Easy Game
Style: Herbaceous
This game is more simple than some of the others I play with my family, which makes it the BEST game to play when you only have less than 30 minutes to fit in a game. There is still strategy involved and obviously some luck as well! My parents and I play it often and have really enjoyed it. Besides the pretty artwork, other bonuses are that setup/cleanup is really quick and the box takes up very little storage space. The only dislike/issue for me would be that the cards are a little difficult to actually shuffle. ... show more
