About this board game
Wild Flowers is a family strategy game for 1–4 players, with games lasting about 45 minutes. Plant flowers petal by petal, claim completed blooms with your bumblebees, and pursue secret garden plans for points.
On your turn, play one, two, or three Petal Tiles from your hand of five onto the unique molded Garden Game Board grid. The colors on each tile must match the colors of the flowers they connect to, so every placement calls for careful planning.
At any time during your turn, you may place a Bumblebee marker on any flower to claim it. Once a flower has been claimed, no other player can score it. A completed flower consists of six matching petals and is worth one point at the end of the game when it has your Bumblebee on it.
Your tile rack also holds three Garden Cards, each presenting a secret objective worth between one and five points. Complete flowers in the patterns shown to score these cards, then reveal and place them on the table. Refill your hand to five Petal Tiles and three Garden Cards at the end of your turn.
- Build flowers by matching petal colors.
- Claim blooms before your opponents can score them.
- Complete secret Garden Card patterns for additional points.
When a player has five completed flowers with their Bumblebees on them, the game ends. Each player takes one final turn to complete flowers, then adds points from completed flowers and Garden Cards. In Wild Flowers, plant wisely, bloom quickly, and grow the garden with the highest score.
