A long time ago at the Japanese Imperial court, the Chinese Emperor offered a giant panda bear as a symbol of peace to the Japanese Emperor. Since then, the Japanese Emperor has entrusted his court members (the players) with the difficult task of caring for the animal by tending to his bamboo garden.
In Takenoko, the players will cultivate land plots, irrigate them, and grow one of the three species of bamboo (Green, Yellow, and Pink) with the help of the Imperial gardener to maintain this bamboo garden. They will have to bear with the immoderate hunger of this sacred animal for the juicy and tender bamboo. The player who manages his land plots best, growing the most bamboo while feeding the delicate appetite of the panda, will win the game.
Sits in kind of a funny spot where the art style and mechanics suggest something family friendly. However, you can be a real jerk in this game in the funnest possible way. It makes it a little challenging to play with the kids unless you're ok with bullying them. However... it's one of their favourites. Probably a 3.5 stars in my house.
This is an entertaining game, with cute figurines.
The objectives range from easy to hard, which makes the game fair and challengeful.
Great game for board game night!
Love playing this game because it’s so beautiful to look at. The game play is fun and the theme is unique.
Does have a little bit of a ticket to ride feel as you try to complete tickets for points.
It’s the one game in my collection that I find is competitive yet relaxing because of the theme
Get it for the cute panda
