A Strategy Game
Tea Garden is a medium-weight euro-style game by Tomáš Holek. Tomáš designed SETI from Czech Games Edition and Galileo Galileo from Pink Troubadour.
Tea Garden is for 2 to 4 players of age 12 and up with a play time around 90 minutes. It takes you on a journey back to the early days of tea cultivation in ancient China. The basic gameplay mechanism is deck-building. With their cards the players will perform a variety of actions that will allow them to collect victory points.
However, one of the most interesting parts is the management of tea leaves themselves (they serve as one of the game’s resources): divided into fresh and fermented - and while the fresh ones lose quality at the end of each round, the fermented ones gain it.
