This is a very light weight, easy to understand card game. I feel like the best amount of players for this game is 3-4 players. It allows there to be a little bit more change over the flowers on the table and gives it a little more strategic edge. 2 players is fun, but lacks the factor of the board completely changing before your turn comes again.
There are 5 types of flowers that you can build with 3-7 petals. You have 2 plays per turn based on 3 options of plays. When you win a flower you can choose to just gain victory points or a special power. When you finish a flower you get to keep the petals that each count a point in the final score. When you draw to replenish your hand at the end of your turn you can choose to draw from your own deck or a communal deck.
I just absolutely love the art work. I feel like the game is easy to understand. The rulebook was well laid out and simply gorgeous itself. It is a fast paced game that you could play quickly with friends or inbetween a couple longer games. We have introduced it to a multitude of friends who range from serious board gamers to those that aren't sure they want to play a game at all. No one has disliked it yet. So, I think that shows its versatility as a good game to have in your game collection.
There are some aspects of the game where you are stepping on each other's toes to gain an advantage, but it's not too much conflict if that's something you are concerned about. You do have to "read the room" so-to-speak when making actions so that you don't enable other players while not hurting yourself by executing your own strategy. Overall it's a pretty good game.
