Gazebo

2025 · Abstract Strategy

Gazebo

Players build a shared botanical garden by placing domino-like tiles to create contiguous nooks of flower, foliage, or water terrain. When a player completes a nook they place one of their gazebos on it, and connecting a nook to a patio lets them claim that patio and place an additional gazebo. Larger nooks can absorb smaller ones and players may steal patios from rivals, creating tactical conflict over valuable spaces. Turns proceed with tile draws designed to balance single- and double-colored pieces, and optional map features (Zen spaces, vases, pedestals) and a partnership mode add strategic variety. The first player to place all their gazebos wins.
