The game contents are as follows: Rules, Starting Player Token, Player Aid, 30 Mint Tokens, and 34 Cards (10 Location Cards, 21 Plan Cards, 2 AI Cards for solo play, and 1 Tantrum Promo: AI for solo play with one side as an AI card and the other as a Location Card). Mint Works is a light and straightforward worker - placement game. It's compact, so you can easily carry it in your pocket. Its simple rules make it a great choice to introduce new players to the worker - placement genre. During the game, each player has a limited number of Mint Tokens representing workers. Use these tokens to earn more, take the first - player position, or buy and build plans. Plans are the key to earning points, and some also give extra powers. The game ends when any player has at least 7 points or there aren't enough plans to refill the stock, at the end of the current round. The player with the most points from built plans wins! Originally part of the Tantrum House Season 6 Kickstarter campaign, it comes with a two - sided promo card. We're happy to offer games like this for online purchase at TheGameSteward.

Using Mint Works is a breeze. First, set up the game by laying out all the components like the rules, starting player token, player aid, mint tokens, and cards. Each player gets a set of mint tokens, which act as their workers. You'll use these tokens to perform actions such as earning more tokens, taking the first - player position, or buying and building plans. To earn points, focus on building plans. Some plans just give points, while others give you extra powers that can help you in the game. The game ends when a player gets at least 7 points or when there aren't enough plans left to refill the stock. At that point, the game wraps up at the end of the current round, and the player with the most points wins. When it comes to solo play, use the AI cards to add an extra challenge. Just note that paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. For maintenance, keep the cards in a card protector to prevent wear and tear. Store the game in a cool, dry place to keep all the components in good condition. If you have any questions while playing, don't hesitate to contact The Game Steward.
