Vaults is a fun and easy to learn card game, set in the steampunk world. Two to four players assume the role of the crime lords and compete to become the richest of all. To do so, they need to recruit safe crackers and use their skills to crack vaults. Some vaults are easy straightforward jobs, fit for a small crew, while others are more challenging and demand larger crew equipped with tools. Every crime lord needs to choose who to recruit carefully. Crew bosses and crew members use their various abilities and can change the outcome of the game. The game is based on the Action management mechanic, where almost every move is considered an action. With the right planning and a bit of luck, every action can lead to high rewards. Vault card game includes: 30 Crew member cards – with numerous skills and abilities 8 Crew boss cards – each with their own unique ability 10 Disrupt cards – with multiple choice effects 20 Tool cards – no crew is complete without one 27 Vault cards – with different difficulty and crack outcomes 4 Turn sequence / character summary cards
