Description

In Botanists, you'll cultivate a small plot of land to grow the most in-demand flowers, with the goal of selling them for a profit. As one of 2 to 4 players, you'll compete to acquire the right seeds from a shared supplier, who only sells them in bundles. This means you'll often end up with seeds you don't need, making each turn a challenge to make the most of your purchases. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 30 to 60 minutes, Botanists is a great fit for a casual game night. You'll need to balance acquiring new seeds with tending to your existing flowers, all while keeping an eye on open orders to maximize your points. The game requires strategic thinking and pattern recognition, making it a fun and engaging experience for fans of abstract strategy games.
