Diese Gärten, diese Alleen

"Diese Gärten, diese Alleen" ("These Gardens, these Avenues") has a board with 13 "gardens" groups of eight holes) and four "avenues" consisting of 24 holes (which are also part of gardens. Two avenues belong to each player). Also contained are wooden pearls and a curious large wooden block. Through each of its sides, two holes have been drilled to the other side. Players take turn executing seven actions. An action can mean - turning the block sideways (only possible on certain positions) - rolling the block over one edge - dropping a seed (pearl) into one of the holes in the block, which will then fall through into the hole below it. The goal of the game is to get more points than the other player. Points are awarded for having the majority in a garden (one point) or having more pearls of either color in one's own avenues (two for first place, one for second and third place, none for the last). The game ends when a player has planted his/her last seed. Now the player with most points is the winner.
