AMANI GARDEN STORYLINE REVIEW: Embarking on an adventure of clue finding.

In the first chapter of Amani garden story it was made known that there were series of plants in her garden namely:

• Mint
• pepper
• Carrot
• Blueberry

Despite the magnificent looks of this plants their rate of productivity does not seem to match Amani's expectations giving her a reason to worry about how she would have enough resources to manage the garden. Though the rate of productivity of each plant is not equal, pepper plant seems to have the highest productivity rate compared to other plants while strawberry seems to have the lowest. The aim of every farmer is to maximise profit by increasing the rate of production in his/her garden to have more sales and Amani is no different.

In her pursuit of thinking of a way to ensure the survival of her garden, she thought about the impossible. An experimental method of merging vegetables and fruits to create a more productive plant. I mean has unrealistic as it might sound, it seems to be the perfect solution to the problem when you merge a less performing plant with a high performing plant to form a more productive plant.

At first I thought, why not go ahead with it Amani, I will love to see you try. I guess the farmer in me is also curious about how Amani intends to be successful with this experiment or probably is just a Bluff.

Then suddenly a mysterious event occur, giving Amani's plants humans attribute, this kind of puts everyone in a pickle, it seems nature has finally heard Amani's cry for help and decided to make Amani's imaginary experiment more realistic, being realistic or not that is part that remains unknown. It might just be a dream and You and I knows what happens if Amani wakes up right, everything goes pooooof!!!!!!! the same way dreemers unsuccessful merge of cards have been doing lately 😅.

Diving into the narrative of the new characters in Amani's garden story, we became aware of the existence of other characters with in each plant clans. Before diving into that lets first discuss the behavioural pattern of each plant tribes in the garden based available information.

• The Mint family: Known as the oldest plant in Amani's garden but despite their natural superiority to plants that were planted after the mints, they are known to be the meekest and the wisest among all the plant clans in Amani's garden. Well I wouldn't say all the mint tribe are humble, if you think about the behaviour of the youngest member of the mint clan.

• The pepper tribe: *The second oldest plant after the mint, known to be prideful and self proclaimed leaders of the garden as a result of the fact that they have the Highest production rate in the garden and also, since the mint are very humble which gives the pepper opportunity to identify themselves as the most superior plant in the garden. The pepper clan are more of a bunch of juvenile girls.

• The carrot clan: As of now there is yet to be any information about the carrot clan but it is safe to say they are the next in line since the blueberry clan are identified to be the youngest in the garden. As we await more information to be revealed about the carrot clan, their behaviour in the garden seems a little bit unusual, they are not the type of clan to want to be in the spotlight light like the pepper clan. Which gives them the perfect cover to act in the shadows and fitting in a bandwagon category.

• The blueberry tribe: They are considered the youngest member in Amani's garden and also most vulnerable, Which means they can be easily manipulated. Being the youngest and vulnerable doesn't mean they bow their heads in fear of the other clans seeing how the Blueberry clan openly oppose the leadership of the pepper clan and openly craft jokes about them. As they say, having strength doesn't make you the strongest sometimes being cunny is all you need.

With the knowledge of each plant tribes in Amani's garden bring us to the next stage of this adventure of clue finding which is understanding the behavioural pattern of each members of the four plant tribes.

Pepper clan is made up of four girls - Pimenta, Piperra, Pip and B'zar We have two most noticeable members of this clan which are:

• Pimenta - According to the storyline, Pimenta is the oldest among the four girls and the most prideful. As the eldest she considers herself to be the leader of the clan and the protector. According to b'zar comment about her while she was lashing out, Pimenta is considered a control freak and someone who derives joy from showcasing are superiority but personally I believe b'zar is wrong about her. Pimenta being the eldest in the pepper clan means she is responsible for protecting the clan from falling apart, She showcased this when she shut out menta from making enquiries about their clan affairs despite her knowing he was just trying to help. Pimenta believes that the only way for her clan to remain superior and in control is by staying united, A belief that is alien to b'zar.

• B'zar - A member of the pepper clan that is considered to be rebellious and malicious, Unlike Pimenta who is trying to keep the clan together b'zar prefers to cause chaos among other plant tribes in the garden. B'zar seems to be character that believes "Family is not about bloodline" Which means she is more open to merging with other clans to form a superior plant just like Amani idea of the experiments. Though she seems to be perfect for merging But a character like b'zar who enjoys chaos more than unionism might make you wonder if she will be willing to merge. She is more of a loner than someone who believes in coexisting.

I made emphasis on the word "family" based on the structure of the mint family unlike the pepper clan which is made up of four girls. The mint family consists of:

• Mento - The father
• Menta - The mother
• Zekka - The daughter
• Munt - The cat

Lets go straight to the odd one in the family, I mean there is bound to be a black sheep in every family.

• Zekka - Based on the storyline, She is the only child of the mint family but unlike the rest of the mint family that are humble and quiet Zekka is a different breed entirely. She is considered to have the charisma of a warrior and a hunter of invasive plants & insects. Though her attitude might be considered as rebellious since her parents believes she is causing chaos in the natural order of the garden but are rebellious attitude is directed toward other species not the plant clans in the garden which makes her a lot different from B'zar. You might wonder if Zekka and B'zar would make a perfect match, they might be two black sheeps from different clans but there character is completely different.

We are yet to know about them but based on the information disclosed about the blueberries about the fact that it is a family that consists of boys, the numbers are yet to be know. Probably they are just like the pepper clan we will find out soon enough.

Dear dreemers
From my own perspective of the gameplay, I believe having the knowledge of the strength, weakness, behaviour of each character and the role of each plants tribe in Amani's garden is the key to discovering which cards to merge in order to develop a higher level character. If a magical event was what brought the plants to life, What better card is there to merge than a magical dreemie card to create higher level plant cards. I might be wrong and I might also be right, it is entirely your choice to believe.

More reviews will be dropped as the story unfolds.

_{I will leave it to your imagination to interpret the correlation between the cards and the storyline.}
