Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is a strategic garden-growing game about racing the sun to keep your trees in the light.

First: plant your first two small trees around the edge of the board.

Then: each round, the sun rotates to a new position, casting shadows across the forest, and players earn light points for any of their trees that stay in direct sunlight. Spend those light points to buy and grow seeds into small, medium, and eventually towering trees.

When the sun completes three full revolutions around the board, harvest your grown trees for points. Whoever's cultivated the most impressive forest wins.
