Tended
ONE
Plant your seeds
Each morning, you get two new seeds and two moves. A move is planting a seed, harvesting a plant, or rotating one.
Grow enough food to last the winter.
Plant seeds, give them sun and water, and harvest what’s ripe. Fill your larder before the third frost.

How to play
Four things to know.
Everything you need for your first season.
TWO
Give sun and water
Most plants need sun, water or both. The arrows on each card give sun or water to the bed they point at. Arrows off the edge are wasted.
THREE
Harvest what’s ripe
A plant with everything it needs glows gold. Harvest it to add its yield to your larder. New plants need one night before you can harvest them.
FOUR
Make it through winter
Seeds you don’t plant go in the compost. Once it’s full enough, any morning can bring a frost, and the third frost brings winter. Have enough food in your larder, and you win.
