Perfection in Imperfection

• 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.

Card Drafting, Set Collection, Pitch-Perfect Theming

• Players choose two cards each turn, drafting once in each direction.
• The cards chosen both assemble scoring sets and cleverly influence which types of pottery will break.
