A tulip-trading card game where giving flowers away can score you more than keeping them.
Who it's for
Fans of light set-collection games who enjoy market manipulation and don't mind a healthy dose of push-and-pull with other players.
Not for you if…
You dislike games where giving your opponents cards can actually help you — the gifting mechanic takes some getting used to.
Vibe's take
Light and calculating, full of small decisions about timing gifts and market swings rather than direct confrontation.
Set at Amsterdam's tulip festival, Gift of Tulips turns flower-giving into a sharp little market game. Each turn you draw two cards and choose to keep a tulip for yourself, gift one to a rival, or slip one into the secret festival pile that will reshuffle the market's rankings later. Scoring rewards both generosity and hoarding, depending on which colors end up ranked where.
