"Gartenbau is a 2-4 player game in which players place and lay tiles in a tableau to meet the growing requirements of drafted flower tiles. A dual track rondel combined with three layers of tile laying are at the core of this beautiful game.

Take on the role of a gardener, seeking to wield your green thumb to grow a well-balanced, mature garden before the growing season ends.

You will sow seeds and grow a variety of plants to fill out your garden. In addition, if you meet the complex growing condition of your Flowers, you'll earn Prestige Points for your horticultural achievements.

The player who earns the most prestige at the end of the game is crowned The Master Gardener.

Gartenbau is set in the late 19th century and all of the artwork used in this game is vintage from that era. This game is dedicated to all of the unknown artists who created wonderful works for various seed and flower catalogs during that period, leaving their mark on a beautiful era for garden art."

Relaxing tile laying and drafting game. The rondel is attractive and adds another level of interaction when deciding to draft or pass on tiles/resources.

I was instantly disappointed by the large size of the box, the lack of color/artwork on the inside of the box, and that the cardboard insert was squished inside the game box. Also, despite the beautiful colors of the play board, I was surprised at the board’s smaller size than anticipated.
As for the actual gameplay, I haven’t even played it yet - the oomph dropped out of my sails when I opened the game, and I’m trying to muster back the excitement I had when researching the game, to even try it out.
