Vicious Gardens
Vicious Gardens is the hit card game that combines the joy of gardening with the thrill of being a total jerk. Strategically cultivate your garden, harvest eccentric plants, and sabotage your neighbors in a "cozy" cut-throat competition. Cultivate Quirky & Beautiful Plants: Grow and harvest eccentric plants such as Fuzzlesquash, Spotted Bildge, or Floofberry in your garden. Over 70 uniquely named and illustrated plants are guaranteed to captivate and entertain — even if your neighbor ends up stealing them! Employ an Eccentric Cast of Specialists: Vicious Gardens has a unique cast of specialists ready to sabotage your opponents and help your garden flourish: Wormsworth, Beebeard, the Curmudgeon, and many more. Use these Specialists to obtain garden upgrades and Victory Cards. But beware, your competition can hire their own Specialists. Harvest for Victory Cards: Obtain special abilities by harvesting your plants to attain Victory Cards, too. Adding Victory Cards such as Carnivorous Plants and Gnudist Gnomes are your surest way to victory. Once a gardener has accumulated three Victory Cards in their garden, the End of the Season (a.k.a. end of the game) begins!
