Take a deep breath, and relax...
You have come to the lake in hopes of seeing something rare and beautiful. The lake's lilies only open their flowers in the rain, and only rarely do all eight types of lilies bloom at the same time. The goal in A Gentle Rain is to place the lake pieces in a way that makes all eight types of lilies bloom before you run out of pieces, and the rain stops.
Place each new piece you draw next to a piece that is already in play, and make sure that the colors on all edges of the piece match the adjacent edges. Each time you complete a square of four adjacent pieces, a flower opens between them.
Count points, or don't.
