Each player has their own garden, but the real battle happens in the shared central strip - whoever controls this area harvests the most points. Gameplay is simple: on your turn, place a flower tile on the board, trying to form large blocks of the same color. The bigger the contiguous area, the more points you score. But watch out! Your opponent can sabotage your perfect garden by planting 'weeds' that spoil your plans. Part of Kosmos' famous two-player series, Flowerpower blends visual beauty with subtle strategic decisions. Perfect for abstract game fans who appreciate elegant thematic touches. ## FAQ ### Is there a solo mode? Yes! It has specific solo rules, but the game shines as a duel. ### Good for beginners?
