Description

Game Description:

Are you ready to explore the fascinating world of pollination?

Play flower cards (which come in six different colors) into your garden, and use different color combos to attract the six different types of pollinators.

Formulate your strategy by paying attention to the day/night cycle tracker: some pollinators only come out at night!

Annual flower cards must be discarded each time they are used, while Perennials stay, turn after turn. But be careful! You only have room for three in your garden.

Protect yourself against Pesticides with an Ecological Restoration card, or recover discards with a Compost card.

Steal pollinators from other players by creating a more attractive garden. But don’t make them too angry, or they might hit you with a Heat Wave or Cold Front!

Gain bonus biodiversity points by collecting at least four pollinators, or all six colors of flowers.


About the Author:

This game was created by Evelyn H, a young entrepreneur from Chicago.

The game is inspired by her passion for the environment and insects, which she learned to love by raising Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillars at a local community garden.

She developed both the mechanics and graphic design for this game, and spent numerous hours playtesting it with family and friends.

✿ EcoFrenzy is printed with soy-based toner, rather than petroleum-based

✿ EcoFrenzy uses recycled paper banding to hold the cards together, not plastic

✿ EcoFrenzy is manufactured in the U.S., limiting the environmental effects of transportation
