About Octopus' Garden
In Octopus' Garden, players take the role of Octopuses competing to create the most beautiful gardens. Attract colourful seahorses and clown fish, without losing pearl-producing oysters to the hungry sea stars! Octopus' Garden is a tile-laying game for 2 to 4 players. Players chose which plant and animal tiles to purchase from a central market and then decide how best to arrange them in their own garden. Careful planning is required to attract seahorses and clownfish, to protect pearl-producing oysters from the sea stars, and to avoid startling delicate feather worms. Octopus' Garden is #8 in the Valley Games Modern Line.
