The Gardens

Sydney’s Royal Botanic Garden is a treasured sanctuary — world-renowned for its harbourfront setting, natural beauty, and rich history. Across 29 hectares, it offers a peaceful escape from the city’s bustle.

In The Gardens, players draft cards featuring iconic elements of the Gardens to create their own flourishing tableau. Arrange flower beds, ponds, native trees, and statues across three rows — waterside, grass, and cityside — placing one card each turn until your landscape is complete. Score points based on what delights your passing visitors.

Simple to learn yet full of thoughtful choices, the game also includes optional landmark modules for added depth and variability. Gather your visitors, embrace the scenery, and enjoy a perfect day in the Gardens.
