Delicious – Board Game Review – Broccoli Never Looked So Tasty!
Spend the afternoon in your rooftop or backyard garden. Relax while enjoying this artful game of picking, pairing, and planting fruits and vegetables. Grow your plants in whatever container you can. Wheelbarrows, boots, suitcases – use anything you can to grow delicious eats! Will you create the most delicious garden?
Over the course of a game of Delicious, players fill their respective gardens with fruits and vegetables by sketching them based on cards and tokens that are revealed in the community area. Players take their turns sketching simultaneously each round as these plants are revealed. Earn the most points by planting fruits and vegetables in your makeshift containers and planters.
A game lasts 12 rounds. Every round, 2 Vegetable cards are flipped (1 from each deck) and a Fruit / Tool token is placed on each card. Each player then decides to use one or both cards (and their tokens), given certain restrictions. When you use a card and token, you mark your Garden and Play sheets, trying to get different combinations of fruits and vegetables.
The cards in the middle are common, but players place them in different containers within their garden setting up different combinations and scoring opportunities. Bonus tools and special powers mean that no two gardens are ever alike.
After 12 rounds, the player with the highest score wins.
– If there is a tie, the player whose fruit planter score is higher wins.
– If there is still a tie, the player who has marked the most First Potter Bonus icons wins.

Who Am I?
One single batchelor from the UK talking about his passion for board games and the people who play them! I support small content creators, board game cafes and go against the status quo when it comes to the board game industry. I give my honest opinions without bias towards any publishers or designers and will not hold back if I don’t like a game.
The Broken Meeple is a variety channel that hosts all kinds of board game content from reviews to Top 10 lists to playthroughs to live stream collaborations with special guests (predominantly small channels who deserve more exposure).
I look forward to engaging with you, the community on my live streams or in the comments on my videos!

Floriferous is my favorite, Skulk Hollow has me intrigued but not tried, if I had a gaming partner it would be a must buy.
As always, informative and entertaining. You are a joy to watch (especially at 15:25😆😂).
Whatnot Cabinet looks relaxing & tranquil. It fooled me! I found it to be frustrating and difficult (in a fun, challenging way tho). You mentioned wanting something relaxing to play at the end of the day – uh, Whatnot Cabinet made me want to flip the table in a fit of rage!
I love the games from Pencil First. I recently shared a short review of The Whatnot Cabinet on my channel. It's a 9/10 for me. Now, granted, these light to medium light puzzly nature themed games are right up my alley. Delicious is really fun. Not sure yet where I'd rank it, but probably 7 or 8 for me. The fruit scoring in Delicious is lifted directly from The Whatnot Cabinet so if you liked that row and column scoring I definitely think you should check it out.
