Description
Get ready to set sail with Keyflower: Key Celeste, a thrilling expansion to the popular board game Keyflower. Released in 2013, this mini-expansion introduces a mysterious abandoned ship, the Key Celeste, which has been drifting out to sea, filled with untouched cargo and personal belongings. As players bid for the Key Celeste tile, they'll uncover the dark secrets of this ghost ship and use its powers to outmaneuver their opponents. With a playtime of 90 minutes, 2 to 6 players can gather to experience the excitement of this nautical-themed game. As an expansion to the base game Keyflower, Key Celeste adds a new layer of complexity and strategy to the game, while still being easy to learn for those familiar with board games. The game mechanics, including auction, modular board, network and route building, pick-up and deliver, set collection, and worker placement, all come together to create a challenging and engaging experience. The Key Celeste tile can be bid on in the same way as turn order tiles, and the owner of the tile will have access to the ghost keyple, a powerful game piece that can be used to frighten away and replace another player's winning bid. This adds a new level of unpredictability to the game, as players will need to think carefully about when to use the ghost keyple to gain an advantage. In Keyflower: Key Celeste, players will have to navigate the challenges of city building, economic management, and nautical exploration, all set in the Renaissance era. With its unique blend of game mechanics and themes, this expansion is sure to delight fans of the original game and newcomers alike. As players compete to build their cities and manage their resources, they'll need to keep a watchful eye on their opponents, as the ghost keyple can strike at any moment, changing the course of the game. With its normal level of complexity and engaging gameplay, Keyflower: Key Celeste is an excellent addition to any board game collection, offering hours of fun and excitement for 2 to 6 players.
