Ever thought about producing food without destroying the forest? In Cultive, you leave conventional farming behind and dive into the world of agroforestry systems. The goal is to create a productive and sustainable ecosystem where nature works in your favor. Here, you don't use pesticides or chemical fertilizers; instead, the key to success is synergy. You'll need to carefully plan where each plant is seeded, considering the species' size, sun and shade tolerance, and how it interacts with its neighbors. Placing the right plant next to another unlocks productivity bonuses that make your score soar.

The gameplay is fast-paced and strategic. Each turn, you have 3 action points to spend as you wish: you can seed cards from your hand, swap cards with the open market to find that specific species needed for your combo, or simply refresh the market options to hinder opponents or open new possibilities. After the actions, the plants grow, and it's time for the harvest!

The game unfolds over 8 rounds. The competition is constant since the market is shared, and the fastest players grab the best cards. It's the kind of game that seems simple at first glance but requires clever planning to optimize space and synergy between species. In the end, the player with the most valuable harvest and the most balanced system wins. It's a light, educational experience, perfect for those who enjoy card games with a touch of resource management and a highly relevant theme about Brazilian biodiversity.
