What’s New: Pumpkins & Beetles
Pumpkin Swap
The green bean season is over an now its time for the fall harvest! Pumpkins come in four varieties, each scoring differently. Clever placement will help you grow a bumper crop of points.
Draw 3 Instead of 2
Pumpkin adds a new level of placement challenges. Pull 3 tiles from the plant bag for more strategic options. Two of the tiles are placed on your plant and one for your neighbor.
Grow Wide, Not Tall
When playing Pumpkins, your goal shifts from sprouting the tallest beanstalk to spreading your garden far and wide.
Trouble in the Garden
The beetles are on the loose! Whether you’re growing beans or pumpkins, these pesky bugs will munch away at your precious leaves. Keep your leaves safe or risk a low yield.
Scoring
When the plant bag runs out of tiles, the game ends, players count their points.
+1, 2, or 4 point for each pumpkin
+1 point per tile wide
-1 point for each open connection
