Set in the early 20th - century, the golden age of museums. As curators, your goal is to build the best collection through bartering.

At game's end, points are scored based on collections and values, and the highest scorer wins. Solo play is a Kickstarter - only feature. TheGameSteward is glad to support campaigns like this. A large part of your purchase will back new Kickstarter games. If you have questions, contact The Game Steward.

How to use: First, make sure you have the Museum core game as this bundle requires it. Set up the game using the components in the Collector’s Box. Each player starts with a small relic collection. Send your explorers around the world to find new relics. Decide which relics to add to your museum or keep in reserve. Try to assemble collections from different categories and periods to get bonus cards from Patron cards. Use Explorer cards to hire archaeologists and deal with Event cards based on historical events. At the end of the game, calculate your points based on your collections. Note: Paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless otherwise stated. Opponents can access your reserve of 'Spent' relics. Maintenance: Keep the game components in the Collector’s Box with the GameTrayz storage system to prevent damage.
