Prototype - Out Dig

Out Dig is about you and your rival archeologists searching for a single relic. Whoever finds it will achive fame and glory.

Game pieces: 48 tiles, 1 treasure tile, 1 starting tile, 1 event deck, 6 player tokens, 1 treasure token, 1 4-sided dice.

Setup: Place the staring tile near the edge of the playing area with it's path facing inwards to the playing area. Shuffle the remaining tiles and place them face down where all players can reach them.

Shuffle the Event Deck and place it face down next to the the Tile Deck. Each player draws 3 cards from the Event Deck.








Playing: At the start of a players, they draw a Tile from the top of the Tile Deck and place it next to another Tile already in play. The lines on the tiles must be touching. Tiles cannot overlap each other. Also, the player may draw Event Cards at the start of their turn until there are three Event Cards in their hand.

The player then rolls the dice and moves up to a number of spaces equal to the roll, then ends their turn. The next player to the right takes their turn.

Event Cards: Event Cards can be played by anyone at anytime, but a player can only play one card a round (1 round = everyone takes a turn from the time the card was played). The card's effect is resolved immediatly, and the card is then put into a discard pile. If a Player needs to draw an Event Card, but there is none left, shuffle the discard pile

Winning: The first player to land on the Treasure Tile recieves the Treasure Token. If that player returns to the Starting Tile while they possess the Treasure Token, they win.

Examples of Event Cards:

Landslide: Move a player token other than your own that just rolled to move to another tile. They do not get to move.

Block the Path: If a player attempts to move through a space your player token occupies, end that player's movement.

Brush Off the Dust: Look at the the top 2 tiles in the Tile Deck. Rearrange them in any order.

Pick and Shovel: Instead of rolling the dice, move your player token to one of the tiles in play farthest from the Starting Tile. You cannot move to the Treasure Tile.

Buried Alive: End the current players turn.

Unproffesional Conduct: Take the Treasure Token from a player who occupies the same tile as you. They cannot be in the middle of moving.
