Tussie-Mussie is based on a Victorian fad that assigned meanings to the flowers that friends and lovers exchanged.
Featuring I-Divide-You-Choose drafting, this 18 card game is played over three rounds. In turn, players look at the top two cards of the deck, then offer them, one face-up and one facedown, to an opponent. That opponent takes one, leaving the other for the active player. A round ends when each player has four cards, at which point the scores are tallied. The highest score after three rounds wins!
So what are the expansions all about?
If you’re comfortable with the harmonious blend of pinks and purples in the base game of Tussie Mussie, the Orange Flowers expansion is the perfect way to add a pop of color to an old favorite. Orange flowers push the player interaction with their diverse scoring: depending on which you find first, you may want to gather them all for yourself or spread them around the table.
The Greenery expansion introduces 5 cards that work in an all-new way. Greenery cards are great for adding a few extra points to your arrangement...as long as you don’t go overboard. One will do just fine; any more than that and you’ll lose points. Every face-down offer could be the Greenery that tips the balance, adding a delightful layer to the already rich decision-making of Tussie Mussie.
Ribbons adds 8 Ribbon cards featuring extra goals that players can score in addition to their arrangement. These goals are visible throughout the game and each game will have 1, 2, or 3 of these cards based on player count. Ribbons don’t add to or replace cards from the deck, so they can easily be played alongside the other expansions for maximum enjoyment.
Tussie Mussie: Flower Shoppe Customers expands on the solo play of Tussie Mussie: Flower Shoppe with 6 new cards, 2 of which are added to the deck between each round. Whenever a customer comes up, their unique ability will be resolved. Customers might reorganize the player’s arrangement, replace claimed cards, let the player sneak a peek at the opponent’s cards, or otherwise change the game. Not all of these abilities are helpful: sometimes the player will have to adjust on the fly. Just remember that the customer is always right!

hello, i'm a new patreon and i discover Button Shy via Tussie Mussie. I do a translation in french to play with my family. SEcond point : do you think if we have an opporunity to play with 6 players ? My sons are old now and have girlfriend, then i also search games for 6 people. Interesting games are often limited to 5 max. Extension can help ?
Jen Allebach
I'm actually curious about the wallet for the expansions too - will it come to $20 members with the expansions?
Jacqueline Stewart
*big sigh* from the UK :-(
Brian Goad
Good question. Interested if it would make sense as an owner of Tussie Mussie, and a BGOTMC member, to back and use my discount towards just the flower shoppe expansion. Is that possible/practical?
NANCY M SILVA
So as a $20 BGOTMC supporter who soes NOT YET already have Tussie Mussie...I will get the expansions (Orange Flowers, Greenery, Ribbons & Flower Shoppe Customers) in future. And I can order Tussie Mussie & Flower Shoppe & pad now? But when I pledge $1 BGOTMC, I only see Tussie Mussie as an add-on, not the Flower Shoppe, nor the pad. Please advise me. Thank you!
Alaena
I think this looks right! I did the same.
Kabson
I take it from the calculator that the UK is part of The Rest of the World now. Sigh (no complaints against Button Shy here, just *sigh*).
Nico Feria
Will these expansions end up in the bgotm 10$ packages? I want to pledge but don't need multiples like with the Agropolis expansions.
Lyle Freijo
How much do I pledge if I just want the play mat and I am a $20 subscriber?
Jeremy Falletta
Is it possible to add the playmat to a BGotMC pledge? It seems the add-ons are limited to additional copies at that level. I'm guessing just adding $20 on top of what I already calculated would do it? And then specify that in the survey later?
Tara Newton
If I'm understanding the calculator you made, I'm NOT supposed to include $$ for add-ons in my pledge? No add-on option came up on Kickstarter. $5 BGOTM getting expansion collection only, plus I want the score pad. I pledged a total of $13 (expansion + shipping - $2 discount), without including add-on $$.
Brett Stanfill
For the Flower Shop expansion do I just do the $9 tier and add two bucks to it?
Brian Goad
What about the fancy wallet though?
Button Shy
You got it :)
Jeffrey Erikson
So just to make sure (b/c Tussie Mussie is one of my daughter's FAVORITES :) ): as a $20 supporter, we don't need to worry about missing out on Tussie Mussie content (assuming we stay at that level, of course ;)) because all of it will eventually be offered in that collection in the monthly package (the three expansions + solo customers)?
Button Shy
Repeating this here as I know it may get missed in the info above: Also a quick note: The Expansion Collection will be offered at the $20 level in an upcoming month, but the individual expansions will not be part of any of the upcoming packages. Sometimes we put expansions into the packages, but none of these will be in it. We do have a tiny solo expansion that is not part of the kickstarter, and that will likely be coming later this year. :)
