Evergreen: Pines and Cacti — Prices

If you're already a fan of Evergreen, get ready to upgrade your garden! The Pines and Cacti expansion arrives to shake up (in a good way) the light and shadow dynamics of the original game. We aren't just talking about more cards, but entirely new ways to approach the board. This set brings two independent modules that introduce plants with very distinct behaviors, forcing you to adapt your positioning strategy.

First, we have the Pines. These guys are curious: small pines have a strong urge to grow, and the trigger for this is actually the shadow. If they end the season in the dark, they spontaneously evolve into big pines. It's as if the shadow is the fuel for their evolution. Cacti, on the other hand, play by a completely different set of rules. They grow quickly, but they are demanding. If you leave a cactus in the shadow at the end of the season, it simply dies. In other words, with cacti, light is a matter of survival, while for the pines, the shadow is a golden opportunity.

An important technical detail for those setting up the table: the base game works with a limit of six powers. Since each module in this expansion brings its own exclusive power, you'll need to remove one of the original powers for every module you add. This keeps the game balanced and prevents the session from becoming a rule-heavy mess. You can add just one of the modules or both, depending on how much complexity you want to add to your session. It's the perfect choice for those who felt the base game had become too predictable and want new tactical challenges to wrap their heads around while building their ecosystem.
