Cloomba

Overview

What ABG knows about this game

In Cloomba, which means “flowerbed” in some Slavic languages, the players become the Masters of flowers and butterflies. It is a colourful tile-placement family game in which the players aim to expand their areas in the beautiful Nature environment. The players make flowerbeds using double-hex tiles with flowers and place butterflies on them. The goal is to make meadows - the flower areas of the same colour. The challenge is that you can't place a butterfly on the meadow where there is another butterfly. These wonderful insects do not stand rivalry. Think of smart and artful ways to create separate meadows, and then unite them. At the end of the game, each player scores points: flowers are multiplied by butterflies on each meadow. Cloomba contains a surprising amount of variety for a game with simple and intuitively clear rules.The game features an interesting market and superflower tiles. For more experienced players there are 21 option cards with extra points and abilities. All the option cards are unique: they do not replicate each other and allow a great range of strategy traded for butterflies. Cloomba: Summer and Strategy in one box.
