About this game

Vadoran Gardens is a competitive tile-placement card game offering a quick and puzzling gaming experience. In each round, players choose cards and strategically place them in their gardens, expanding pathways to fulfil various objectives. In the game, you embody young Vadorans who are training to join the prestigious Cyrrus Order. Explore the enchanting gardens, connect similar areas, and strategically group animals, statues, and flowers to score. Return lost items to their rightful place to earn bonus points and prove your worth to the Order. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
