Archaeology: The Card Game review

Archaeology: The Card Game is a fun and quick card game that's easy to pick up and play. The theme is Egyptian themed, and you're digging for treasure, trading in the marketplace, and selling to the museum for points. It's similar in concept to games like Morels or Valley of the Kings, but with slightly different gameplay mechanics. I found it a great game to bring to a party or picnic, as it's easy to teach and the game doesn't take long to play. The rules are simple, and it's really about trying to collect sets of artifacts to "cash in" for points. The only thing that disappointed me is the artwork on the cards, which feels a bit dated compared to other games out there. I would still recommend this game if you're looking for a fun and quick card game for the whole family.
