Somewhere between Northeast and Southeast Asia lies a mysterious and beautiful island called Formosa. It is covered with mountains, plains, and hills of all shapes and sizes. It enjoys an ideal subtropical climate for growing fruit. So ideal that fruit can be harvested all year round. As long as they cultivate their fields cleverly, farmers are guaranteed to have succulent harvests every season.
The game is divided into 4 seasons. Each season is played on a different board, which contains a mix of Fruit cards and Weather cards. The availability of certain fruits varies depending on the season. To start the game, each player draws 4 cards from the Spring deck. When it's your turn, you can cultivate your fruits by placing 2 cards on your fields or harvest your fruits to gain points by emptying a field. After playing, draw cards from the deck to have 4 cards in hand again. When you draw a card, you get Weather cards: scorching sun or torrential rain. Rain cancels out the sun, but if you accumulate three identical cards, you will suffer a weather disaster that will destroy one of your fields. When the Winter deck is empty, each player counts their total score. The player with the most points wins the game.
