Under the Mango Tree

In Under the Mango Tree players stand before a small slice of Australian wilderness, entrusted to their care and brimming with potential. Heaps of litter mar the landscape, waiting to be cleared. A once-majestic mango tree yearns to bear fruit again, its branches aching for the playful chatter of animals in its shade.

Their mission is to breathe new life into this patch of nature through a competitive card drafting game. On each turn, players simultaneously select a card from their individual hands, then pass the rest to the next player. The twist: each card has two halves. Theyll tuck one half under your board, removing it from the game, while the other remains visible to score points. This adds a layer of strategy, as they must consider not only which halves to use for themselves, but also which to deny their opponents. When all cards have been played, the player who has created the most vibrant and point-rich ecosystem around their mango tree wins.
