HIGD1026 - Botanicus

What would it actually be like to create your own botanical garden? As an artistocrat of the late 19th century, you have bought land, hired a gardener and set out to find the most beautiful plants of all. However, visitors have very specific ideas about which plants they want to admire in your garden. So it's not enough to plant them somehow - no, you also have to foolishly place the plants so that the right visitors can see what they want ...
In the connoisseur game Botancius with simple tactical aspects, you compete with your fellow players for the best yield for your botanical garden using a new action mechanism. You want to get the right plants and water them at the right time, look after your gardener and, of course, don't neglect your finances. In the end, it all depends on how many onlookers are happy with their visit and how beautiful your garden is. Will you manage to overshadow your competitors' gardens?
