SchatzJäger

Goblin’s Loot

In the caves of Frost Mountains, in jungle and lava caves we hunt for treasures. In each round, you draft a hand of nine cards of adventurers, watch dogs, coins and action cards. Then you place cards for locations and can add action cards. The two treasures of a location go to the player with the strongest group and to the player with the weakest group. Your treasures must be defended with watch dogs against Goblins or you risk loss of coins. Finally, you can swap yellow magic scrolls for coins. After five rounds, you win with the highest total of treasures and coins.

The first expansion for Schatzjäger / Treasure Hunter introduces new components based on the rules of the basic game, with modifications for set up and changes provided by the new goblins, adventurers and magic scrolls. If you play with the expansion you replace the goblins from the basic game with the goblins from the expansion. The adventurer cards Viggo Adlerauge/Trueshot and Schlossknacker Tim / Tinker Tim from the basic game are replaced with the Viggo Adlerauge/Trueshot and Grimbold Edelstein/Gemstone cards; the three purple magic scrolls with negative effects are shuffled into the treasures from the basic game; there are also new watchdogs with paw values 3 and, new, the Goblin Jäger/Hunter.

He must be played when the winner of the paw value totaling is determined; the winner must give one goblin + eventual coins with it to the player who played the goblin hunter.

All in all, Goblin’s Loot is a nice addition to an attractive family game, providing variation, but nothing really new for the competition for treasures and the fight against goblins.
