How to play: First, each player starts with a small crew, an unimpressive claim, mediocre equipment, and a little cash. Your goal is to manage your mining outfit and get as much gold as possible before the ground freezes. Throughout the game, sell the gold you find to keep your equipment running and your workers happy. Use your workers and equipment wisely to make your outfit more efficient. You can choose to recruit more workers or invest in better equipment. Things to note: This is the Kickstarter Edition, and paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise.
