Mini Miners

Mini Miners is a family game in which players will hire and equip Dwarves to send them in a very hazardous mine and try to collect as much gold as possible… and above all they will try to let them escape the mine safely with the gold. Develop your strategy by choosing well your dwarves and how you equip them, create combos between their abilities or simply rely on luck by taking more risks to be the richest player at the end.

A game of Mini Miners take place over 3 rounds each divided in 4 main phases.

First, each player will recruit their team of dwarves during a short draft phase. Each one having unique abilities choosing well your miners will have an important impact for the rest of the round. Once all dwarves have been recruited each player will be able to buy tools that they will be allowed to attribute to each of their dwarves. Those tools will offer them some abilities to help to gather more gold, mine more safely or to have more chance to escape this dangerous mine alive.

Once equipped it is time to send them down the mine. Every player will place their dwarves in the mine, the deeper they go the more gold is to be found but the risks are greater.

Then comes the time to search for gold, every dwarf will draw cards depending of where they are in the mine and collect gold nuggets depending of those cards. They will try to avoid the mine collapsing on them and then to leave the tunnel with the gold without getting stuck inside.

After three rounds repeating those phases the winner will be the player that collected the most gold nuggets. Between each turn player will be able to keep the tools to have more choices to equip their dwarves the following turn and an event will happens at the beginning of each one to spice the game up, slightly changing the rules and the strategies.
