This isn't a standalone game, but a special expansion piece that first appeared back at Essen 2005. We're talking about the 'Jeweler' promo tile, which, despite its small size, brings a very interesting conversion dynamic to the table. The concept is simple yet potent: you can trade your gold for victory points at specific ratios (1:5 or 2:9, depending on your tactical approach). It's exactly the kind of detail that can shift the momentum of a competitive game, allowing you to transform raw wealth into prestige more directly. Keep in mind that this tile was a promotional giveaway from the Essen fair, but it was also made available for download on the Ystari website and is included in special editions like the Rio Grande Second Edition. If you want to upgrade your Caylus experience and add another layer of resource conversion, the Jeweler is your go-to! ## FAQ ### Can I play this item alone? Not at all!
