Square Roots

In this tile-placement and deck-building game you play a plant starting it's life as a new sapling growing from a fruit, trying to thrive in this world.

You start small and vulnerable and need to extend your root network by placing root cards, which you then use to gather more resources from the soil. To grow big and string you desperately need more sugar, which you can then receive by converting the gathered nitrate wand water at your leaves.
Once you grow strong enough, you can start blooming by placing a beautiful flower, which requires quite some resources to upkeep. If you are successfull, you can then finally develop a fruit to reproduce yourself.
