Fountains

Fountains is a take-and-make tile game about building a beautiful, functional water feature in Florimelle. On each turn, a player moves one of three Basin pawns one to three available spaces clockwise and drafts the adjacent tile or bonus token. Tiles can spread outward or stack upward, but new levels must be fully supported and dark-brick edges must connect. More importantly, water flows from jets across channels on the same level or downward—never upward—so careless construction creates dead pools that cannot score. Landing a pawn on its matching color triggers a table-wide reward for lily pads, pools, or a chosen fish color, making the timing of a draft as important as the tile itself. Coins score immediately, while final rewards value flowing features, visible jets, height, sets, and optional public design cards. A solo machine and variable tile supply preserve the puzzle across player counts.
