Immerse yourself in the wonder of nature and create a vibrant meadow bursting with flowers to attract the most vital creatures of the ecosystem - graceful Hummingbirds, swift Dragonflies, flittering Moths, delicate Butterflies, dancing Ladybugs, and revered Bees, the king of all pollinators.
Flutter is a strategic tile-laying strategy game for 2 to 5 players, ages 8 and up, and it takes about 30 minutes to play. Players take turns laying tiles of varying shapes, earning petal tokens for matching flower petals in each corner. As the game progresses, players will spend those petal tokens when they enclose a previously laid tile, supplying the tile’s pollinator with all the flowers it needs, earning pollen. Once a single stack of tiles in the supply rondel has been emptied, the player with most pollen is the winner!
Strategic tile laying, with unique geometric shapes.
Novel use of a rondel in a tile laying game.
Eco-friendly: All paper and wood components, in all versions of Flutter, are made using 100% FSC-compliant (Forest Stewardship Council) materials.
