Minerals

In Minerals, get ready for a geological expedition where your goal is to unearth and collect the most beautiful and valuable gemstones. As experienced geologists, you'll venture deep underground, searching for everything from milky-white wollastonite and moonless-night-dark anthracite to ocean-blue kyanite. But it's not just about digging! You need to plan each move intelligently, carefully observing your opponents' plays so you don't miss the chance to grab that watermelon tourmaline or golden orpiment. The game unfolds on a modular board, which you and your fellow explorers build each game, ensuring that every new adventure is unique. As you move across the grid, you excavate minerals, with the rarest and most expensive ones requiring extra effort. To make things easier, tools can be used, but beware: they cost points! Turning your minerals into collections is a great strategy to gain fame and honor. In the end, whoever has the most valuable collection of minerals and sets takes the victory. Designer Magdalena Śliwińska, a graduate of an art academy, not only created the mechanics but also the stunning artwork of the game, making Minerals a true gem both to play and to admire.
