Press release:
October 12th 2017: Cottage Garden, the very successful strategy board game from cult author Uwe Rosenberg, releases on iOS and Android for 4.99$. DIGIDICED, the company that brought you quality adaptions like Terra Mystica, Patchwork, Le Havre: The Inland Port and Agricola: All Creatures Big and Small, is showing once more what a small team of dedicated developers is capable of. Cottage Garden offers addictive puzzle fun with cross-platform multiplayer for up to 4 players. Asynchronous ranked and casual games with friends are a known standard in DIGIDICED apps.

Short Summary:
In the digital version of the Cottage Garden board game up to 4 players compete in the art of gardening in a Polyomino style game.

Overview:
COTTAGE GARDEN – a colorful sea of flowers, framed by walls, paths, and hedges. As ambitious gardeners, you face the challenge of filling the beds in every corner of your garden with plants, inspired by the limitations of space to create ever new compositions. You will use a variety of plants — as well as flowerpots and garden cloches — to design gardens that bloom with diversity. Be kind to the helpful cats!

Goal of the Game – In Cottage Garden, you compete in the art of gardening. Plant two Flowerbeds with different flowers. Score each Flowerbed when there are no more free spaces visible on it, then exchange it for a new, unplanted one. You receive points for all visible Flower Pots and Garden Cloches on the completed Flowerbed, and you may also receive Flower Pots and Cats that will help you with your gardening. The player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner.
