Botanical Swapple Game

Royal Horticultural Society
A family-friendly game of switching, swiping and swapping illustrated flower cards to create a garden of your dreams. Each player is dealt eight floral cards; your goal is to make your hand match the exact mix and order of the flowers illustrated on your ‘Garden Goal’ card, as well as matching the insect-illustrated ‘End’ cards. The first to make their garden is the winner! With ‘Snail Swap’ and ‘Caterpillar Swipe’ cards as well as the option to steal cards from fellow players, things may get fractious as you swipe and steal cards to claim victory. Fun and quick to play, the cards themselves are exquisitely decorated with botanical illustrations from the Society’s Lindley Collections. Each flower card is also informative, with common and Latin flower names alongside. From Rosa ‘Mignon’ to Tiger Lilies: you may even discover a bloom you need for your own garden in real life while playing this fast-paced game of garden grandeur.
