About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey there, board game enthusiasts! Ready for another dash of Keyflower? Introducing the Vault, a promotional tile designed to add that extra spice to your game, especially if you're into hoarding gold. Released at Spiel 2025, it functions like those specialized storage buildings that grant points for specific resources, similar to the Barn, Blacksmith, Stone Yard, and Timber Yard, but with a sole focus on gold. The magic happens at the end of winter: the gold you've carefully stored in the Vault transforms into pure victory points! If the Vault is in its base state, you get 3 points for each gold coin. However, if you manage to upgrade it, the reward jumps to 4 points per gold. And to power up the Vault? Simply spend any two skill tiles – easy peasy! This expansion introduces an additional layer of economic strategy, encouraging players to manage not only their traditional resources but also to accumulate gold efficiently to maximize their end-game score. It's an addition that fits perfectly within Keyflower's core mechanics of auctioning and worker placement, demanding careful planning and a keen eye on your opponents' moves. If you're already a fan of Keyflower and love optimizing your economy, the Vault is a must-have item to add that final touch to your burgeoning villages.
