A Fistful of Daisies is a board game released in 2020 for 2–4 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 6 and up. It was designed by Frank Crittin and Grégoire Largey and its main mechanics are Roll / Spin and Move and Dice Rolling.
In the valley of Herens in A Fistful of Daisies, cows fight one another to win succulent flowers, then get back to the cowshed first. Each cow player starts with a board showing flowers that they want to eat. On a turn, one player rolls the dice, then each player drafts a die in turn. Players then take turns moving their cows, and if they end their movement in a flower field matching a color they want to eat, then they take a token and cover one of those colored spaces on their board. If they land where another cow is located, they must duel! Roll the cows to see who ends up showing more spots; whoever wins collects clover tokens equal to the number of spots you rolled, and as soon as you have at least four clover, you had in four to cover a flower of your choice. Whoever first covers all their flowers, then returns to the cowshed from which they started movement on this circular board wins.
A Fistful of Daisies supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for A Fistful of Daisies is 20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists A Fistful of Daisies for ages 6 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
