About the game

Description from the publisher: In This Belongs in a Museum, players compete to become the most revered archaeologist in the world.

Collect valuable artifacts and outwit your rival colleagues in this new addition to the Drawn & Quartered line of easy-to-learn, strategic tile-laying games. Archeologists take turns placing base camp, dig site, and terrain tiles to connect and build their respective domains. Move your archeologist around the game space to collect artifacts for added victory points.
