Overgrowth

Overgrowth

2024·Kirsty Buley, Mike Cleeton, Phil Fox

2 players
15 - 25 min

From BoardGameGeek

In Overgrowth, players master the art of strategy as they compete to create a clear path of their flowers, from one side of the board to their opponent's, or gather the most blossoms in the meadow by the game's end. With each move, every decision counts - will you outwit your opponent & claim victory? At the start of their turn, players move their action selection marker around the board. This is in a clockwise direction, up to 3 spaces - selecting one of the 3 available actions from the 4 on the rondel. Players will be able to either: Grow – adding a flower token adjacent to one already placed. Cast – throwing a flower token 3 spaces away from one already placed. Spread – placing up to 2 flower tokens horizontally across the board, adjacent to one already placed. Overgrow – if surrounding your opponent's flower token on two sides like a right angle, you may replace it with one of your own. -description from the publisher
