About this game
Orchard packs a whole tiny farming puzzle into nine cards and ten quiet minutes. You lay fruit tree cards one on top of another, always chasing overlaps where the same fruit peeks through from the layer beneath, because every peek is a fruit you get to harvest. Dice track your growing haul in three fruit types, and two rotten fruit cubes let you cheat a placement when nothing else fits, at the cost of a few points. There is no opponent to out-think, only your own past layout working against you. A pocket-sized solitaire gem for a coffee break or a palate cleanser between heavier games.
