Description
Game comes with 64 double-sided tiles, 16 claim tokens, 4 miner playing pieces, 1 die, and rules of play. The object of the game is to be the first player to find and claim four different gold nugget tiles. You start by turning all 64 tiles rocks-side-up and shuffling them. Then you make the mine by laying a 8x8 grid of tiles. Each player takes turns rolling the dice and moving. When you land on a space, you look to see whether you have found gold, an obstacle (like "Keep Out!" signs, "Danger" signs, Bears, Bats, etc.), or just more rocks. There are also mining cars and lanterns that help out too.
