About the game
Welcome to Floresta, a competitive board game set in central Portugal. Immerse yourself in the captivating realm of forest management, where players strive to achieve the best use of the Mediterranean forest while battling recurring wildfires. Plant trees, score points in different locations, promote tourism, nurture local trees, harvest wood, and bring the lynx back to its habitat. Construct watchtowers to control fires, strategically planting trees near them. With every decision shaping the fate of the forest, will you rise above the competition and emerge as the ultimate guardian of this precious ecosystem? Floresta is played on several game boards, each depicting mountains, forests, or paths through nature. Each turn, players choose a card from their hand and apply its effect by placing a tree on one of the boards. They must strategically plant trees to create a sustainable ecosystem, while also taking steps to prevent and fight forest fires. —description from the publisher
