==Goal==

Plant flowers, score points and move your Martian around the 40-space track. When the game ends, the Martian furthest along the track wins (40 points = 1 lap).

==Setup==

* Each player draws flowers from the bag: '''2 players 27, 3 players 18, 4 players 14, 5 players 11'''. The rest stay in the bag and are not in play.
* Players place '''3 trees''' on empty circles, one at a time (2 players: first, second, first).
* Your Martian starts on space 0 (top-left corner).

==Your turn==

{| class="wikitable"
! # !! Step !! What you do
|-
| 1 || '''Special action''' (optional) || Tap a counter. At most one per turn.
|-
| 2 || '''Plant''' || Place one flower on an empty circle in line with your Martian.
|-
| 3 || '''Score''' || Count your connected flowers of the same colour (up, down, left, right). That is your score.
|-
| 4 || '''Move''' || Move your Martian forward that many spaces.
|}

==Planting==

* From your Martian a line goes '''straight in''' and '''diagonally''' to both sides. A corner has only the diagonal.
* '''Trees block''' a line. Flowers do not.
* No empty circle on any line: skip planting and move 1 space.

==Scoring and moving==

* Only flowers touching up, down, left or right are connected. Diagonals do not connect.
* Spaces with other Martians are skipped (not counted). You cannot end on an occupied space.

==Extra turn==

If you plant the '''last flower of a colour that is in play''' (none left in any reserve), you take another turn right away.

==Special actions==

Each counter can be used once in the game. Each player may use one special action per game (two in a 2-player game).

* '''Swap''' a tree with a planted flower.
* '''Swap''' two planted flowers.
* '''Move''' a planted flower to an empty circle.
* '''Move''' a tree to an empty circle.
* '''Move''' your Martian 5 spaces forward (scores 5).

A coloured disc with a Martian on a counter shows who used it.

==End of the game==

* A player has no flowers left: the game ends after that turn.
* The leading Martian is a full lap (40 points) ahead of the last one: the game ends at once.

==Options==

* '''Lap bonus:''' when your Martian crosses the start line, take one flower from the board into your reserve (not of a colour with none left in reserves).
* '''Cooperative:''' all players together; the score is that of the Martian furthest behind.

==Colour-blind help==

Every flower colour has its own pattern and centre symbol.
