Earth

Polish your engines and breathe life into your tableau—“Earth” is a verdant engine-builder that rewards careful planning and eco-conscious strategy, all wrapped in lush, nature-themed art.

This engine-building tableau game invites 1–5 players to cultivate your own thriving ecosystem as you plant, compost, water, and grow in a 4×4 grid—simultaneously activating every player’s “Eco-powers” for zero downtime action and constant tension.

How the Game Works

Each turn, a player selects one of four ecosystem-building actions—Planting, Composting, Watering, or Growing. That player gains its benefits, and all other players may take the secondary effect. Afterward, all tableau cards with matching color icons trigger abilities in top-to-bottom, left-to-right order, creating a cascading wave of mini-engine flows.

Your tableau is your living ecosystem. Cards represent plants, fungi, or terrain, each with unique one-time or ongoing powers. As resources like soil and sprouts cycle through your cards, compost, or growth towers, you're constantly building points—session after session—within an elegantly thematic loop.
