About the game
What you do in a play session
Gear up your expedition! In 'Der Schatz der Inka' (or 'Inka', as some know it), each player leads a group of adventurers in a frantic race to find the lost Inca treasure. The treasure is hidden in one of the temples scattered across the board, and the search begins with dice rolls and strategic use of compass cards to guide your explorers. Landing on a temple gives you a chance to find it! But the adventure doesn't stop there: whoever finds the treasure must safely bring it back to their base camp. Beware: your rivals won't make it easy and might try to steal your precious discovery at any moment! The game blends the thrill of exploration with the tension of direct competition, where luck in dice rolls and managing movement cards are crucial for success. It's a classic adventure that tests your ability to plan routes and anticipate opponents' moves. Who will be the most cunning explorer to unravel the secrets of the Inca Empire and emerge victorious?
