About the game

It's always flowering season in sunny Singapore! In Oh My. Orchids!, you want to gather seed cards to plant in your garden different types of Singaporean flowers, from dazzling heliconias to delicate orchids. Lots of thorny decisions await you in this flowery game of hand management and set collection. On your turn, either gather seeds from the display or plant flowers. To collect seed cards, take all cards from the five-card display that share a color or share the number of seeds; if you end up with more than seven cards, discard to seven, losing 1 point for each wasted card. Planting flowers requires you to match the seed requirements of the different flowers in the display. Orchids are harder to match, but earn the most points. Once one player has at least seven flowers, everyone else has one more turn to plant, then you tally your points, earning a bonus if you have at least four types of flowers. Whoever has the most flower points wins. —description from the publisher
