$40.00 SRP

 

Over a hundred years of legend awaits you and your skills as you vie to be the lucky prospector to hike out of the Superstition Mountains with The Lost Dutchman’s Gold. However, this expedition for lost gold isn’t for the faint of heart. You will face grizzly creatures and dastardly disasters around every corner and even the ghost of The Lost Dutchman himself while contending with your opponent’s thirst for gold that grows with every nugget uncovered.

 

In this treacherous treasure adventure, prospectors must balance their skills to take on fierce creatures and dangerous disasters with their search of gold. Will you find the most treasure by prospecting or will the map lead you to victory? No one path guarantees victory but with the right amount of skill and a little bit of luck you can be the first prospector to uncover the famed Lost Dutchman’s Gold!

Are you up to the challenge of uncovering the legendary gold of the Lost Dutchman?

 

The Lost Dutchman is a treasure mining game for 2-5 players in which players are competing to mine as much of the Lost Dutchman’s Gold as they can before the water supply runs short bringing the hunt for treasure to a parching halt. Players can also win by successfully navigating the Community Treasure Map and finding the ever illusive Lost Dutchman’s Gold Mine.

 

2-5 players

Ages: 13+

1We had the chance to talk with Benji from Action Games miniatures while at Origins 2013.   He gives us a quick overview of Drake the Dragon Wargame and a demo of how combat works.  For those of you that missed it Drake was a recently successful Kickstarter project.  I fell in love with their minis as soon as I saw the pictures.

 

 

I will admit my camera work could be better butt it was one take and all impromptu.  You can learn more about Drake the Dragon Wargame at Action Miniatures Games.
