Gameplay is great, we've only played at 2 players, but I'm sure it will work at higher player counts as well. The "dig" has a big luck element which can be frustrating for the person losing sometimes. Check board game geek to see if this is your type of game. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Legends are Right *by K***D on Reviewed in the United States on 14 January 2017* "12 Weeks!? It'll take that long?"If you want to find a treasures you seek you are going to have to spend the necessary time excavating."But is there any treasure left? My competitors have already picked over those ruins..."The legends say some significant treasures were buried there that haven't been unearthed."But I feel my chances are as good as, as good as... as drawing coins out of a cloth bag and most of them will be blank! I'd rather spend time hob-knobbing with senators..."If the shoe fits...Gameplay:In this game you can hop around between a couple of grand cities in Europe during 1900 for a few years. What are you doing in those cities? recruiting helpers, gathering rumors, and studying books about ancient ruins in the Mediterranean and North Africa. That's all board-game-theme-speak for set-collecting. It costs time in weeks to travel and each card you pick up at one has a cost in weeks. The cooler to card, the longer it takes to get it.While most of your collecting is to build your count of books of a certain color, you can also visit the senate meeting in each city. The more of those you attend the more points you get at the end.For those who would rather be in the dirt, you can take your books to the old country. Each set of ruins has it's own cl+-oth bag that has cardboard coins that are either blank or have pictures of treasures on the each with varying point values. The first to get to each site is sure to get at least one treasure, but after that it's a matter of luck. Each player has a spiffy dial that reminds me of Ralphy's Little Orphan Annie Decoder ring only it's much larger and made of sturdy cardboard. It may be meant to be like the medallion that got scorched into the hand of that evil nazi in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Anyway, you turn the dial for the number of the books you've got and then it tells you have many disks you get to draw from the cloth bag, depending on how many weeks you choose the stay for the expedition.There are legends (read: cards) that tell how many pointer coins are in each bag. But be warned, each person who draws from the bag puts the blanks back in, so it becomes less likely that you'll draw out the remaining counters on subsequent visits. Usually more than four visits to a location dries it up.The turn order is interesting in this game, depending on who has spent the least time in the game, get to have a turn. kind of like Patchwork.In addition to finding treasure, you can show them off at exhibitions. These are periodic and temporary opportunities to show of combinations of treasures found from various ruins. This gives another avenue to score points, adding to the multiple paths to victory.Once the number of years have passed, you count up who has the most books of each color, granting more points and see who wins.BalanceNo player has a distinct advantage over the other, each can be rewarded with luck or smacked by it when treasure hunting. But as there are so many other ways to score points, this luck factor is mitigated. Making it fun to jaunt down to the old countries and see what comes of it.InteractionThere are only four cards showing things that can be had in the European cities, sometimes the selection isn't great or people take what you want before your turn. But it's also a race to see who gets the best pickings at each of the sites. Is it worth the time to get the books that count as any color? Should I go down now even though I don't have the optimum amount of books? Should I visit another site or two while I'm down here? What will they do while I'm buried in my excavation?Down time:Turns are short and while your choices feel important you can only make one per turn. I haven't noticed much analysis paralysis while playing this game.I love the theme, love the multiple paths to victory, love that the game is easy to learn/teach. It's a game I'm delighted to have in my collection.Collateral Endorsements:My kids, ranging from 6 to 10, really like the game and have called for it often. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very thematic and fun *by L***C on Reviewed in the United States on 6 February 2023* Fun thematic board game, which has balancing issues. Good bit of luck based gameplay which may be fun or frustrating for players. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/156462342-queen-games-peter-prinz-thebes-game](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/156462342-queen-games-peter-prinz-thebes-game) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
