From BoardGameGeek
Mindbug: Battlefruit Kingdom is a stand-alone game of Mindbug about a Kingdom of Pineapple Paladins fighting the mighty Lychee King. Plant your fruit and vegetable creatures, protect them from your opponent, and Harvest their crazy abilities. Being a stand-alone game, Mindbug: Battlefruit Kingdom can be played on its own, or mixed with any other Mindbug sets. This new set introduces the Harvest mechanic allowing you to trigger extremely powerful abilities a few turns after a creature is played. It also introduces the new FAST keyword allowing some creatures to attack the same turn it's played. Pressure your opponent and protect your creatures to harvest their rewards. In Mindbug, you summon hybrid creatures and send them to battle against your opponent. But be careful: your opponent may use one of their Mindbugs to take control of it. Outwit your opponent in a fascinating tactical duel in which having the best cards and playing them at the wrong time can be deadly for yourself. Mindbug combines the accessibility and fairness of a simple card game with the strategic depth of a complex Strategy Card Game. The result is a skill-based dueling card game that feels utterly different from all the other card games you have played before.
