## Description
Get ready to bundle up, because winter has arrived for Keyflower! This expansion introduces 'The Glade' tile, a special piece that adds an icy and strategic touch to your village. Released alongside the Collector's Edition in 2024, this winter tile features the same cute (or not-so-cute!) critters found on the 'The Glade' box art.

The main draw is that each adjacent tile in your village displaying a winter icon is worth a precious 3 points at the end of the game. This means strategically expanding your settlement with these chilly tiles can provide a significant scoring advantage. It's an addition that doesn't radically alter the core auction and worker management mechanics we love in Keyflower, but it offers a new incentive to think about tile placement and synergies.

If you're already a fan of Keyflower and enjoy optimizing every corner of your village, 'The Glade in Winter' is a sure bet. It adds a direct scoring element that can influence your auction decisions and tile placement strategies. Don't expect a revolution, but rather a welcome refinement for those looking to further hone their strategy and maximize their points in every game. It's that extra dose of challenge that Keyflower veterans will surely appreciate.
