Description

Being a gnome that makes a living by digging for treasure can be hard work. Especially when there are grumpy trolls laying underground. In this game, you are a gnome that gets to build a series of tunnels underground, and then gets to dig in the hopes of gathering enough gems and gold to reach the final goal!

You assemble a modular board that is different with each game, and depending on how deep you dig, you may find treasures or trolls or even impervious rocks that damage your ability to defend yourself as you dig. As you go through the deck of cards, the tunnels will get darker, the trolls will get stronger, and your ability to defend yourself will weaken as you mine tough stones that break your shovels.

On each turn, you move through the tunnels, choose to dig, and try to empty your treasures out of your backpack and into your home base (the tin). The more treasures you sell, the higher your score.

This is a print-and-play game with components that fit into a typical mint tin container (paper tile pieces, paperclips, dice).
