Overview

Gold Digger is a simple press-your-luck game for 2-4 players.

The Deck

The deck contains 40 cards, including 10 Bombs, and 30 Gold Cards in values of 1, 2, and 3. Shuffle the deck and choose a random player to go first.

On Your Turn

Turn over the top card. If you get a gold card, put it aside. You may stop now, and keep your gold, or flip another card.

If you flip over a "Boom," it ends your turn and destroys any gold you have collected this turn. If you find more gold, add it to your pile.

You may stop at any time and keep your gold, or you may continue until you get blown up. If you quit before blowing up, the temporary pile of gold becomes yours. Either way, the turn passes to the left.

Winning

Play continues until the bottom of the deck. Then, everyone scores points for all the gold they managed to keep. The highest score wins!

Strategy Tip

Count the Booms!
