Description

What would it be like to plant your own botanical garden?

As a late 19th-century aristocrat, you've purchased land, hired a talented gardener, and set out to find the most beautiful flowers in the world. But that alone won't be enough - your visitors have very specific expectations of what kind of plants they watn to see in your garden.

In Botanicus, players use an innovative action mechanism to compete for the best garden. You'll need to give your gardener the right instructions, get the right plants, water them at the right time, and arrange them to please as many of yoru visitors as possible. But make sure you keep an eye on your spending!

Will you garden outshine all the others?

Includes an Expert Variant, which introduces 4 unique Gardens, new action types, final scoring cards, and more! This expands the game's tactical and strategic depth.
