**Butterfly Garden**, designed by Reiner Knizia, features 3D acrylic butterfly pieces and accommodates 2-4 players. The gameplay revolves around strategically placing tiles to guide butterflies along floral paths toward designated flowerbeds. It shares mechanics with tile-laying games like *Metro* and *Tsuro* but emphasizes directing butterflies to specific destinations.
Players can collaborate when paths overlap but must also compete to claim butterflies for their own gardens. Balancing cooperation and competition is essential for maximizing points. The scoring system rewards players who successfully guide rarer butterflies, encouraging strategic path-building and tactical decisions.
Suitable for ages 8 and up, the game has straightforward rules and typically concludes in 30 minutes, making it accessible for family play. Unlike traditional path-building games, *Butterfly Garden* shifts focus from path ownership to shared board dynamics, creating a fluid and interactive experience.
