About the game
Arbos Apfel, the successor to Arbos, is great fun for the whole family. With great skill a tree grows by attaching leaves, branches, and now apples. Makes the game even more diversified! Whoever placed something on the tree has to take anything that falls down during installation. The level of difficulty can be adjusted by moving the trunk. A card deck brings additional excitement. This beautiful game is made out of wood, of course.

Questions and answers
Arbos Apfel supports 1–6 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 Arbos Apfel is 30 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 Arbos Apfel 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.
Arbos Apfel has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
