What to Expect
You play Ghanaian farmers who plant trees, deploy harvest workers and complete tasks to gain fruit. The game uses hex landscape tiles and a circular market where you take tiles to build your forest. Fruit markers on your player board rise when sickles adjacent to fruit groups trigger harvests, and completing task strips unlocks further movement. Simultaneous action choices and pattern-building create a steady stream of spatial puzzle decisions.
Who Is This Game For?
Aimed at experienced family players and hobby gamers: the game supports 1–4 players aged 8+, with medium complexity. At about 60 minutes per game it fits a game-night slot and also includes a solo mode, so it appeals to solo players who enjoy tile puzzles and planning.
How It Works
Core mechanics are Tile Placement and Pattern Building: you take landscape tiles from a market and add them to your tableau to form connected fruit groups. Simultaneous Action Selection appears when players reveal and play harvest tiles and choose fruit markers. Victory Points as a Resource is represented by fruit markers on your board that advance when sickles next to fruit groups trigger harvests. Task strips define patterns (tree types, lines, letter connections) whose completion removes the strip and allows markers to move further.
What Makes It Special
Designed by Uwe Rosenberg, Click A Tree blends hex-based Tile Placement with Pattern-Building and a market mechanism. The mix of simultaneous decisions and resource-like fruit markers gives it a distinct puzzle/resource-management feel within a Farming/Environmental theme.

Setting & atmosphere
The theme centers on Ghanaian farmers and ecological agriculture: trees, fruit and harvesters are embedded in the gameplay. The setting is reflected directly in planting trees, harvest actions and fruit markers.
Tips for beginners
Focus first on fulfilling simpler task patterns and observe how sickle placements boost fruit markers; set up tasks so markers can advance gradually.
