Bennis bunte Blumen

SEEDS, WATER, FLOWERS

 

Benni Hörnchen and his friends want the most beautiful flower garden in the Squirrel Wood. Blossom tiles are distributed green petals side up on the board. You put your seeds on your squirrel and put the squirrel in front of its tree house.

You roll the green dot die and the blue symbol die; the green dot die regulates the moves of your squirrel and sowing seed, the symbol die the additional actions. First, you move your squirrel the amount of steps indicated by the greed die: When the move ends next to an item of your color of next to an empty brown earth hole, you can sow: To sow a seed you move your squirrel on top of the hole and let a seed drop and then you put your squirrel back on the path; if you roll the butterfly you can choose one, two or three steps for your move. When the symbol die shows green petals you can turn over a blossom tile; if you have found a blossom of your color you set it down open-faces; others are turned back over again. If you roll the watering can you can water one of your seeds; it grows into a plant, that is, you take on plant part and place it on top of one of your seeds. For the rain cloud on the symbol die you can let all your seeds grow into a little plant. When the symbol die shows the sun your plants flower – you can take one of your blossoms and put it on one of your plants. When all you your plants have blossomed you quickly run to the treehouse; if you are first to reach it you win.

This is „only“ a simple roll & move game, but it enchantingly illustrates the live of a plant from seed to blossom and also demonstrates the progress of the game! Simply beautiful, simply felicitous.
