Kodama: The Tree Spirits

Players act as caretakers for tree spirits, arranging card-based trees over three growing seasons to meet each spirit’s preferences. On a turn, players add branch cards to their tableau, balancing flowers, insects, and branch layouts while leaving space for future growth. At season end, a Kodama card scores points based on how well a player’s tree matches its requirements. The game emphasizes spatial planning, tableau building, and adapting to changing scoring conditions across multiple rounds.

    Cool and beautiful card game where you're constructing your own tree. Easy to learn and fast. No interaction between players, good with all number of players.
