About the Game

Taro Paradise is a light strategy and hand management planting game. You will be a Taro farmer on Maddish Island. You can utilize all of the limited resource and multiple tools to make the combo to plant Taro. And you have to properly help each other and make use of special Paradise System to get more opportunities and harvest. Do not seek quick success and instant benefits, then you can score more!

How to play: The player who recently ate or planted Taro will be the first one to draw cards. Each player randomly draw 1 Farmer Card from one of two decks (clockwise) ,until all players have 5 Cards. When it's your turn, choose one of the two actions:Work Action/Lazy Action. In the end of the action , draw 1 card from Farmer Deck. If the hand is less than 5, draw cards until it's 5. The player's hand has no limit. Each player take turns doing Farmer Action until all Farmer Decks run out. After everyone's hand runs out, this game ends. If all Farmer Deck runs out, the player who runs out of their hand will end the game first and wait for all players ending the game. Finally, start calculating scores.

Farmer Cards are classified into 3 types: Tools, Resource and Paradise. Resource include Water and Fertilizer. When the number of the Water and the Fertilizer are the same on the Field(1:1), it's called "Pair". Then you can plant a taro on this Field. Planting is the main way to score in the game.

There are 2 more special mechanism in this game: 1. Helper System: As a kind-hearted farmer, you need to help each other. If Field's Inside become "Pair" due to your Farmer Action ( Work or Lazy), you can place a "Helper Marker" on the "Helper Area" at the end of Action. When the Field was Planted,each Player's Helper Marker which placed on the Field will return to the Player Boardand immediately get the reward! 2. Paradise System:Taro Paradise is a mysterious area hidden in Taro Field. You can discard a taro to Paradise. When Taro is abandoned by Farmer, Taro Fairy will appear to take care of it. When the Field meets the conditions of Planting,Taro will Fall into Field and be Planted.
