Limited Deluxe Edition

This singular edition of Broken and Beautiful is only available to Kickstarter backers, through retail stores that backed the Kickstarter campaign, and here on our website or at conventions we attend.

• A hefty, minted metal teapot coin replaces the Standard Edition's wooden disc.
• Metal ingots replace the Standard Edition's wooden ingot resource markers.

Perfection in Imperfection

Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with golden lacquer. Kintsugi artisans honor broken objects' histories with stunning repairs rather than throwing them away.

• Draft cards like bowls, cups, vases, and tea jars to create high-scoring sets.
• Different types of pottery score differently, with non-pottery cards adding even more texture to gameplay.
• Some pieces inevitably break — and players can influence which ones.
• Broken pottery is worthless, but players can use gold to repair their shattered collections, and when they do, their value grows greater than when they were brand new.
