## Description
If you're the type of person who walks into a plant shop and can't leave without a new pot, get ready! Planted is a delightful game that casts you in the role of a true 'plant parent.' Your mission is straightforward yet challenging: build a stunning collection of houseplants to beautify your home and, of course, claim the title of the ultimate green thumb at the table.

The game features an impressive variety of 42 different plant types, ranging from crowd favorites like Monstera and Ficus to more exotic species. But don't think it's just about buying and potting; every plant has its own personality and specific requirements. In each round, you'll need to manage your resources—such as water droplets, sun chips, and plant food—to ensure your plants don't just survive, but truly thrive. It's a constant balancing act between acquiring the perfect plant and having the right supplies to keep it healthy.

With clever design from Phil Walker-Harding, the gameplay is incredibly fluid. You'll engage with simultaneous action selection and hand management to decide how to best invest your time and resources. There's also a satisfying element of set collection and end-game bonuses that reward players who have carefully planned their decoration and plant care. It's a light, snappy game (taking about 20-30 minutes) that is perfect for those seeking strategic depth without the heavy complexity of a hardcore eurogame. Whether you're unwinding after work or looking for a quick session with friends, Planted offers a visually beautiful and mechanically rewarding experience. It's the kind of game that makes you want to start a real indoor garden as soon as you pack the cards away!
