The Tree Lined Avenue (2019)

About this game

Be a big-time landscape designer and design the most beautiful park! There's a new plan to build a large park with its symbolic tree lined avenues. However, the avenues cross paths and the number of available trees are limited. Design the park so that the avenues you are in charge of are the most beautiful in the park. Players take turns choosing trees and placing them to build a park in a 6x6 grid. As the trees provided in each round are limited, players fight over them. Higher points can be achieved by collecting the same type of trees on the rows and columns on which your gardeners stand. Choose your trees wisely, as it affects your turn order in the next round.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
