Key Game Play Features

Minesweeper-Type Exploration

Using the standard rules of minesweeper will be your best strategy for navigating these trecherous ruins. Clearing out safe mines will reward you with artifacts and access to the depths of the caves. However, if you dare to trigger a trap while in the cave, prepare for a world of pain. Enemies, traps and environmental hazards are all things a sophisticated adventurer such as yourself must be prepared to deal with after all.

Artifact Extraction

Once you ascertained the location of several artifacts, use your handy gravity gun to extract the artifact safely out of the ruins without damaging it. Some items are especially heavy or fragile and require the help of your teammates to tackle such a task. BE WARNED: the museum is not willing to pay for exessively damaged artifacts, and any damages will be collected directly out of your compensation!

Museum Progression and Advancement

As you collect more and more artifacts and fill up the museum, it will increase in size and grow in popularity. This will provide you with access to even more locations of ruins and equipment to expand your operation!
