Our family are really into board games and this has had my eye for a while and it didnt dissapoint. Once you get the game pieces assembled its ready quickly for each game. Was easy enough to grasp the gameplay and instructions are clear. Had lots of fun and I won the first go, so even better !! Only snag is I wish the insert in the box tray was sturdier as the smaller pieces roll around the box. Next move will be to buy the expansion...

Welcome to the world of Photosynthesis. In this visually stunning game, you plant and shape the ever-changing forest while cultivating your seeds and your strategy. Take your trees through their life-cycle, from seedling to full bloom to rebirth, and earn points as their leaves collect energy from the revolving sun’s rays. Carefully pick where you sow and when you grow, as trees in the shadows are blocked from light, and from points.
Voted the winner in the People's Choice Awards at UK Games Expo 2018, this game does not disappoint.
Several varieties of trees compete to grow and spread their seeds in the sunlight of this small, but fertile, forest. As each tree grows its leaves are touched by the sun’s rays, collecting Light Points and casting shadows on the surrounding smaller trees. When a tree reaches the end of its life cycle, players win points proportional to the richness of the soil the tree was rooted in.

Llegó el día indicado y en perfecto estado.
Al abrir la caja te encuentras con 10 planchas de cartón de donde hay que ir quitando las diferentes piezas del juego. Hay que tener cuidado al sacar los abetos porque, aunque el cartón es grueso, las puntas de la parte superior son muy finas y el cartón se abre fácilmente. El montaje es un poco largo, pero merece la pena porque visualmente es muy bonito.
Después de montarlo todo, viene la parte de leer las instrucciones, que están en inglés. Al principio parece lioso y complicado, pero en cuanto se entiende que el objetivo es conseguir completar el ciclo de vida del árbol “comprando” su crecimiento con puntos de luz, se vuelve un juego muy entretenido.
A partir de ahí es un juego de estrategia en el que tienes que decidir donde hacer crecer tus árboles para coger el máximo de luz posible y dar sombra a los árboles contrarios.
Es un juego entretenido, que a mi peque de 8 años no le costó entender después de un par de rondas de prueba.
La única pega que le pondría es que los 8 árboles altos no caben de pie en la caja y hay que desmontarlo para guardarlos. Espero que no se deterioren mucho por ello.
Me parece un muy buen juego.
