Description from the publisher:

The sun shines brightly on the canopy of the forest, and the trees use this wonderful energy to grow and develop their beautiful foliage. Sow your crops wisely and the shadows of your growing trees could slow your opponents down, but don't forget that the sun revolves around the forest. Welcome to the world of Photosynthesis, the green strategy board game!

Fun with Trees

Very enjoyable puzzle, have to watch the other players and the changing board is great. Trees are so terrific great quality. with a few small additions and crafting can make great little holders out of the insert. a hit with mid weight gamers

Dynamic through the whole playthrough

Fantastic game. I love how the sun mechanic adds a level of dynamic value that keeps all players on their toes. Very tight game in the 3-4 player count, which always has you on the edge vying for space in the forest. Wonderful game!

Beautiful looking

What a beautiful game with great table presence. I like this game a lot, but sometimes feel like in the last couple moves nothing happens and everyone is just waiting for the game to end while collecting light points. Still very fun. Curious if the expansion adds anything exciting.

A game that continues to grow on me

I have introduced a lot of games to my family and friends, and this is one that new players ask for again quite often. The components are lovely, the gameplay is simple but engaging, the theme is evocative, and it does not overstay its welcome. Probably one of my most-played games and I can't see myself getting bored with it anytime soon.

Great light strategy game

This game's presentation is impressive. The sunlight movement mechanism is very clever.
