VICIOUS GARDENS: CRUEL SUMMERS & NOXIOUS WEEDS
The weather is unforgiving and neither are the weeds.
You thought the only danger to your garden was the neighbors' criticism, but nature has decided to up the ante. This box contains two distinct modules that transform your tranquil green oasis into a botanical war zone, where the climate goes haywire and unwanted plants threaten to smother your masterpieces.
It's a strategy and card management board game that adds unpredictability and new aggressive tactics to the base game. Certainties crumble under the scorching sun as you desperately try to save your flowerbeds from a silent but deadly invasion.
Cruel Summers introduces weather events that change the rules of the game every turn, forcing you to adapt or perish. Noxious Weeds, on the other hand, lets you directly sabotage your opponents by planting parasitic flora in their precious spaces.
It's the game for those who loved the nastiness of the base game and want even more tools to ruin the plans of their friends at the table.
Why CRUEL SUMMERS gets stuck in your head
Scorching heat
The sun beats down hard and dries out your best resources, forcing you to make drastic choices to avoid losing everything.
The weed is advancing
Noxious Weeds take up valuable space in your garden, blocking carefully planned combos.
Unstable weather
Each turn brings a new weather condition that alters the costs or benefits of your cards.
Poisoned Gift
Don't just tend your own garden, send weed seeds to your rival's garden and enjoy the chaos.
Sudden drought
Water becomes a luxury just when you need it most to keep your prize-winning specimens flourishing.
Hard-fought victory
Beating the weather and your opponents makes your green thumb even more legendary.
🎯 COME SI GIOCA
🧤 BUSTINE
New dangers in the green
THE SUN BURNS AND THE GRASS PUNCHES
Two expansions in one box
The essence of Vicious Gardens remains intact: building the most beautiful garden while insulting your rivals. However, now you also have to consider the sky and the ground. Weather cards introduce global events that can turn the tide of the game in an instant, turning a perfect strategy into a barren disaster.
Risk management becomes crucial. You can no longer simply optimize your space; you must actively defend yourself from the weeds that other players will try to plant in your flowerbeds, taking up vital slots and ruining your floral arrangements.
The real fun is watching your opponents squirm as they try to deal with a sudden drought just after you've filled their garden with nettles.
Where it rewards you
Rapid adaptation
Take advantage of a climate change that penalizes others but leaves your plants intact.
Targeted attack
Use weed cards as tactical weapons to block your enemies' high-paying slots.
Resistant Combos
Building a garden that can withstand both insults and bad weather gives immense satisfaction.
Drama at the table
Event cards create moments of shared panic that make every game memorable and tense.
Thorny defense
Learn to protect your living spaces or turn weeds into unexpected resources.
Constant tension
There's never a quiet shift when the cruel summer looms overhead.
Where it tests you
This board game expansion requires strong nerves and a flexible strategy. You'll have to balance tending your garden with managing new weather cards and weeds. It's an ideal title for those seeking a competitive experience full of twists and turns.
