What you do in a play session

In Unexpected Treasures, you step into the shoes of a modern-day treasure hunter, but with a twist: your treasure is old furniture found at a waste collection site. The goal? Collect unique pieces and sell them to paying customers. But beware: you can only take a few items at a time, and there's a thief on the prowl who might steal your precious finds. The game blends strategy with a bit of luck, with everyone choosing their actions simultaneously, creating moments of tension and fun. Who will be the best furniture dealer?
