Goal of the game
Do you have a reputation as a plant killer? Keep this little plant alive for 20 turns, redeem yourself and earn
the title of plant lover.
Game mechanics
The game starts with a sprout that we will have to take care of throughout the four seasons (spring, summer,
autumn, winter) of a year until it blooms.
To take care of the plant, we will always have three cards in our hand. Each turn, we can play or discard a card.
Seasons
Every five turns we change to another season. Each of the seasons will have different effects on the plant:
- Spring (turns 0 to 5): each turn, the plant gains 1 health point and loses 1 or 2 space
points.
- Summer (turns 5 to 10): each turn, the plant gains 1 point of sunlight and loses 1 or 2
points of water.
- Autumn (turns 10 to 15): each turn, the plant gains 1 water point and loses 1 or 2 sunlight
points.
- Winter (turns 15 to 20): each turn, the plant gains 1 space point and loses 1 or 2 life
points.
Cards
To take care of the plant, you have different cards in your hand:
- Caress: has no effect on the plant.
- Fertilize: adds 2 health points.
- Medicine: adds 1 health point and cures the fungus infection.
- Play: subtracts 1 health point.
- Prune: adds one space point.
- Talk: has no effect on the plant.
- Transplant: adds 5 space points and changes the appearance of the plant.

- Water+: adds 3 water points. If the result is greater than 10, subtract 1 life point.
- Window: adds 2 points of sunlight. If the result is greater than 10, subtract 1 life point.
Random events
Each turn, there is a chance that a random event will happen:
- Cat: the plant loses 5 life points.
- Happy: the plant gains 2 life points.
- Mom: the plant gains 1 water point. If the result is greater than 10, it loses 1 life point.
- Plague: loses 1 life point each turn until the medicine card is played.
