Botanical Bedlam

Botanical Bedlam is a surprisingly challenging puzzle game for two to six players. Players take turns choosing path pieces and flower beds, which all players must then place somewhere in their grid, which is kept secret from the others. The game ends when a player has no legal place to play a piece, whereupon everyone's grids are revealed, and the player with the longest, most scenic garden path wins. Planning and spatial skills are key to winning a game of Botanical Bedlam, as is balancing risk and reward. Although long, intricate paths are the highest-scoring, the end of the game can come suddenly and unexpectedly, and incomplete paths are penalized. (Description from http://www.bgdf.com/node/1255)
