## Description
The Cactus Promo Tile expansion for Petrichor introduces a new element to your virtual garden! This modular piece adds a cactus that will test your gardening skills. For it to grow, you need to ensure it receives at least two drops of rain. But be careful, because if the cactus is overwatered and accumulates four or more drops, it drowns, and the players who contributed most to this drowning end up scoring fewer points. This promo tile, released via Kickstarter, adds an extra layer of resource management and a touch of humor to the already charming Petrichor experience. It's one of those additions that, though small, can change the course of the game, forcing players to think twice before playing that 'innocent' rain card. Get ready to see your cactus grow, but don't let it wilt!
