## What is Hana?

The Honzō Zufu is a 92-volume botanical encyclopedia painted by Iwasaki Kan'en in late Edo-period Japan. Hana-awase is a memory game played with its hand-colored flowers.

HOW TO PLAY
- Turn over two cards. If they show the same plant, they match
- Each card you turn over shows the picture and the plant's name
- The board starts at 2×2 and grows to 6×6 as you clear stages
- Missing a card you have already seen counts as a miss. Ten misses in a stage and the run is over
- See how many stages you can clear in a row

COLLECTION
- Every plant you turn over goes into your collection
- The more you match a plant, the higher its rank: bronze, silver, then gold
- Open the original page of the Honzō Zufu from the collection
- Can you get every plant to gold?

INCLUDES
- 105 plants from the Honzō Zufu, with more to come
- Japanese, English, Chinese (Simplified), Thai and Vietnamese
