er in a clockwise direction. Uncovered tiles in the middle are covered u

Variation for younger treasure hunters
In this variation, it is not the
g
old on the cards but the number of cards
collected which is added u
p
at the end. Whoever has the most cards,
wins the
g
ame. In the event of a draw there are various winners.
Complete the mask o
f
the guardian (=3x gold)
Search in the little ba
g
f
or three
g
emstones which match
w
ith the mask of the
g
uardian and place them on the cor-
r
esponding marks on the card. You can look inside the bag
w
hile searching. Make sure you keep these gemstones
apart
f
rom the
g
emstones
y
ou had be
f
ore
.
W
atch out

If, which is ver
y
rare, the three
g
emstones
searched for are no lon
g
er in the ba
g
,
y
ou are unluck
y
an
d
y
our expedition has failed.
Catch the adventurer (= 1x
g
old)
This problem involves all the pla
y
ers as the
y
can all win
this card and thus the gold.
A
s soon as the card showing the adventurer has been
u
ncovered, each pla
y
er tries to snatch first for the
adventurer in the middle. Whoever succeeds, immediatel
y
g
ets the card and keeps it in front of them to
g
ether wit
h
other cards they might already have. The adventurer is
pl
ace
d
b
ac
k
into t
h
e center
.
The treasure huntin

•
... the treasure hunter shouts “Stop”!
B
efore pullin
g
out a new
g
emstone of the ba
g
, the treasure hunter
can voluntaril
y
finish the expedition b
y
shoutin
g
“Stop!!” and leavin

A
s a reward the
y
g
et all the cards

The
y
then count how man
y
y
ellow
g
emstones the
y
collected durin
g
the expedition: For each two
y
ellow
g
emstone collected the
y
draw
a card from the pile and pile the cards they have won up in front of
t
h
e
m
.
Example: Bastian shouts “Stop!” be
f
ore the hourglass has run
throu
g
h. There are two cards and three
y
ellow
g
emstones in fron
t
of him. For two of the
y
ellow
g
emstones he can take one car
d
from the pile. The third
g
emstone doesn‘t brin
g
an
y
thin
g
. So
Bastian has won three cards in this round
.
•
... the jungle guardian shouts “Stop!”
A
s the last
g
rain has slipped throu
g
h the hour
g
lass, the
j
un
g
le
g
uardian shouts “stop!” and shows the hour
g
lass to ever
y
bod
y.
The treasure hunter has taken too lon
g
to cross the
j
un
g
le and their
ex
p
edition has
f
ailed
.
A
s a punishment, the
y
have to put all the cards the
y
won in this round
back into the bottom of the pile
