In TQRS, players work together to create the perfect flower garden for the Queen's Festival. Using cards and simple commands players must execute each turn perfectly to match the requested layout, by moving pieces and "painting" rows of flowers. In addition, overlapping primary colors can create beautiful secondary color options. With each successful round, players communicate less, and less, creating a chaotic and fun atmosphere.

My role in the creation of TQRS was as a game designer, art creation, prototype and asset manufacturing and general production. As a part of a large group we all shared roles evenly, and experienced many parts of the design process.
