About the game
Description from the publisher: Players slip into the role of dwarves who have found a cave full of treasure. Now they take turns distributing their finds to the four treasure spaces, but the growing stacks make the dwarves more and more nervous. Should they secure their share now and make a run for it? Some dwarves are greedy and hang back, and by doing so they might miss the right moment to leave, with another player stealing their favorite treasure from right under their nose. And if the worse comes to the worst, the cave orc will catch them! Before leaving the cave in Mein Schatz ("My Treasure"), you need to decide on a treasure stack and a treasure type, so it's important to remember where the right treasures are. It's hard to keep track, but that stack in the top right corner contains quite a lot of pearl necklaces, right? And then you try to pick a good moment to leave. Usually it pays to wait as the treasure cache will only grow in the course of the game. But keep an eye on your fellow dwarves, and watch out for that cave orc!
