About the game

Your gardening community "Garden Frenemies Assoc." is selecting the garden of the year! So manicure your lawns, trim your hedges and convince the jury. And if that is not enough to beat your neighbors… steal their garden gnomes and steam roll over their flower beds! Over 50 unique illustrations and over 60 cards that all are functionally different! Lawnarchy is a turn-taking riddle game with lots of tactical thinking, changing objectives and interactive back and forth. Each player owns a garden of 4 starting cards, only a fence separates you to your neighbor's garden. The rules are simple: Each turn you have three options and pick one card, but the possibilities are complex. 1) You convince the jury and pick a jury card from the examination board - these objectives constantly change! 2) You do some gardening, and replace a card with a garden card from the common "garden center" - same as the jury, all garden cards have different requirements! 3) You squabble with your neighbor by picking a squabble card. You can destroy their garden, steal their gnomes, or rearrange their garden. You have to figure out the best move - a wrong one and your neighbor will get ahead! —description from the designer
