Board Game Geek Rating: 6.67. Board Game Geek Avg Player Rating: 7.37. This 2018 Retail Edition of Mint Works is a light - hearted worker placement game. It's perfect for 1 to 4 players. The game comes with rules, a starting player token, a player aid, 30 mint tokens, and 33 cards (10 location cards, 21 plan cards, and 2 AI cards for solo play). Its compact size allows you to carry it easily, and the simple rules make it great for introducing new players to worker placement games. Each player uses a limited number of mint tokens (workers) to earn more tokens, take the first - player position, or buy and build plans. Plans are the key to earning points. Some give just points, while others offer extra powers. The game ends when a player has at least 7 points or there aren't enough plans to refill. The one with the most points from built plans wins!

To play Mint Works 2018 Retail Edition, first, set up the game using the included rules, starting player token, player aid, mint tokens, and cards. Each player gets a limited number of mint tokens which act as their workers. During the game, use these tokens to earn more tokens, become the first player, or buy and build plans. Remember, plans are how you earn points. Some plans just give points, and others give you extra powers. The game ends when a player has at least 7 points or there aren't enough plans left to refill. The winner is the one with the most points from the plans they've built. When not in use, keep the game in a dry place to prevent damage to the cards and tokens.
