Papillon
Players cultivate a spring garden by drafting flower tiles and arranging them into a personal tableau over eight rounds. Through tile drafting and bidding, players add 3D flower components and place caterpillars that later become butterflies, then move those butterflies to visit flowers and collect nectar. Scoring rewards collected nectar and area majority interactions within the garden, with additional objectives tied to garden features. The game supports 2–4 players and combines tableau-building, tile drafting, and area-majority mechanics into a medium-length strategic experience.
