About the game

What is Garden Rush?

Garden Rush is a two-player, tile-placement battle game in a vegetable garden in which players race to grow vegetables in their garden and fill their basket before their neighbor. Careful planning is needed to plant each vegetable in its unique pattern for future harvesting, while keeping an eye on the conveyor belt shared between the gardens. Players place one tile per turn to build their garden, following the harvesting patterns for each vegetable. Extra abilities, including Take That options, can be gained by using special tiles on the board or on the scoring track. The first player to reach 40 points or who has the highest score when the tiles run out, wins.
