Description
In the valley of the Indus, the remnants of the ancient Harappa culture wait to be uncovered by two to four expedition teams competing to secure the most valuable sites. Each team is eager to occupy the best locations and start digging, but it's not just about being the first to claim a spot - it's about strategically using your archaeologists, assistants, and workers to support your excavations. The game is designed by Wolfgang Panning and was first introduced in 2004, and its easy-to-learn rules make it accessible to players of all experience levels. What makes Indus truly unique is its modular board, composed of 7 large and 7 small segments that are combined differently each time the game is played. This means that the dig configurations will vary, offering a fresh experience with every playthrough. With a playtime of 60 minutes, Indus is the perfect game for those who enjoy exploration and ancient history, and its compact length ensures that you can fit in a thrilling adventure even on a busy day. As you navigate the challenges of excavation, you'll need to balance your resources and make tactical decisions to emerge victorious, making Indus a captivating and engaging experience for 2 to 4 players.
