A clever tile placement game by Uwe Rosenberg

A wide orchard lies in front of Applejack's cottage.
Help him and his daughter plant apple trees and harvest the juicy apples. Don't forget to set up the beehives between the trees. Because at the end of this game, whoever gets the most honey wins!

On their turn players choose 1 tree tile from the harvest board in the middle of the table. This tile shows a combination of types of apples and apple blossoms as well as beehives. The beehives show the cost for the tile in honey.

The tree tile will be placed on the players orchard. The beehives need to be places next to other beehives on tiles already in play in order to get the players honey tiles.

When the Applejack die on the harvest board comes across an apple icon this type of apple will be harvested - again gaining the players honey tokens. But only if they arranged the apples in a meaningful way.

After 19 turns each players orchard is filled and the final scoring takes place. Apples, apple blossoms and collected honey will be scored. Whoever has the highest score will win a game of Applejack!

Underrated Gem

Not only is this game easy to teach, easy to play, and a delight to look at. It’s also comes packed with variants that mitigate luck and randomness giving the player back their chances to win due to their own strategies.

Some reviewers stated they didn’t prefer the final scoring however I am happy to say that the final scoring in the game is very fair as it does not let any one strategy trump the other. Doubling the points from your apple clusters is intentional as a catch up mechanic to those who haven’t collected all their Apple colors to score via the set collection scoring.

Lastly I recommend you remind players a couple times during play how the scoring works at the end of the game just to ensure everyone knows what tiles they should be reaching for at all times in the game (especially blossoms mid game) so that they get the best score possible at the end. Happy gaming folks!

I Love Uwe games but...

I have almost all of Uwe games and love them in there each and own way. But this one...I don't know..it's probably the first game of his that I'm thinking about selling. Just a slow boring crawl of matching apples and counting my honey
