Introduction to the Travel Town Card Vault
As you collect card packs in Travel Town – Merge Adventure, you will inevitably receive duplicate cards. Instead of going to waste, every duplicate card automatically converts into Card Stars corresponding to its star rating (e.g., a 1-star duplicate gives 1 Star, a 5-star duplicate gives 5 Stars). In this travel town card vault guide, you will discover how to open the Card Vault, reward tier breakdowns, and whether you should save for the 500-star vault.
1. How the Duplicate Star Conversion Works
Whenever you open a card pack and pull a card you already own in your active seasonal album:
- The card is added to your Duplicate Star Bank.
- 1-Star Duplicate = 1 Star Point
- 3-Star Duplicate = 3 Star Points
- 5-Star Duplicate = 5 Star Points
These Star Points can be redeemed in the Card Album menu under the “Star Vault” tab.
2. Card Vault Reward Tiers Breakdown
The Star Vault features three distinct redemption tiers:
- 100-Star Vault: Contains a small energy bundle, a few gems, and a 2-star or 3-star card pack.
- 250-Star Vault: Contains a medium energy bundle, green gems, and a 4-star card pack.
- 500-Star Vault: Contains a massive energy bundle (500+ energy), 100+ gems, and a guaranteed 5-star or Wild/Joker Card pack.
3. Why You Should Always Save for the 500-Star Vault
While it is tempting to spend 100 stars as soon as you reach the threshold, saving for the 500-Star Vault offers vastly superior value:
- The 500-star vault is the only tier that offers guaranteed high-star or Wild Card rewards.
- Opening smaller vaults yields low-tier duplicates that rarely help complete remaining album sets.
4. Best Times to Open the Star Vault
To maximize your album completion gains:
- Wait until the final 2 weeks of the seasonal card album event before opening your 500-star vault.
- Coordinate vault openings during active “Sticker Boom” or double-drop events to receive bonus cards from the vault packs.
- Never open vaults if you are only missing common 1-star or 2-star cards that can easily be traded with Facebook group friends.
