Gameplay

Spring C3 Feature Statue.png
1. Placing a tile

If you draw a spring tile, you place it according to the usual rules.

2. Placing a meeple

You can place one of your meeple on the spring tile according to the usual rules.

Statue tiles

You will find 1 statue tile in each of the The 4 Seasons series.

Example 1a: A statue.

The following rule applies to all 4 statue tiles of The 4 Seasons:
If your tile is horizontally, vertically or diagonally adjacent to a statue tile of the 4 Seasons after being placed, you may place 2 meeple on this tile in different areas.

Example 1b: You place the tile you have drawn on the spring statue. Now you place a meeple on the road and another meeple on the city there.
3. Scoring a feature

You now score points for garden and spring tiles that are horizontally, vertically or diagonally adjacent to the spring tile you have placed:

  • For each garden you get 3 points
  • For each spring tile you get 1 point

Note: The flowers and flowerbeds on the spring tiles, especially the flowerbeds around the monastery, do not count as a garden.

Example 2a: A garden always looks like this.
Example 2b: You place the spring tile you have drawn. At the end of your turn, you receive 7 points: 3 points each for the two gardens and 1 point for the other spring tile there (bottom left).

The bridge does not end the roads displayed on it, nor does it combine them; one road continues from left to right, while the other continues from top to bottom (ending at the city). The roads split the field into four separate fields.
