Fruit Picking

Players act as fruit farmers on a small island, planting and picking seeds to grow fruit and trading harvests at a central Market Island. On a turn a player takes all seeds from one space on their island board and distributes them clockwise mancala-style; the last seed determines the Pick farm for the turn. The player may add more seeds to that Pick farm or pay seeds to trade the fruit type there for a market card. Collecting all cards in one of the four district sets on Market Island ends the game. This edition updates artwork, uses double-layered boards, and includes solo rules.
