Description

In times before the Fackler-Games this must be the most expensive game edition. It was a personal dream of the author to become true, 1000 were intended to be made. The game consists of: 1 three-dimensional wooden board, measuring approx. 1 yard square, 62 cherries in 3 colours (1 inch diameter) 62 leaves in 3 colours, 15 bonus-cherries, 42 point-allowance-pawns and 4 coloured birds on trees as playing pawns, all made of wood too. Name of the game means "Royal Cherry". After setting up the game with the beautiful components mentioned above players start to move their birds in the centre field measuring 7 x 6 squares, containing the point-allowance-pawns depicting leaves and cherries in alternate appearance. The number depicted is the maximum you can harvest from a certain tree (cherries or leaves). After your move the bird sits in the hole left by the pawn. Next time your move has to start from there, such restricting your further moves. Aim of the game is to go for the bonus cherries counting points at the end. You can earn them being the LAST one harvesting a tree or by being the one with the most cherries and leaves harvested from a certain tree. As the trees have three different sizes, there are different amounts of bonus cherries to gain. This is not a game for children, you have to twist your brain for the best moves !
