Wadjet (1996)

Overview

Beautiful bits! Treasure hunting and tomb raiding! Back-stabbing your fellow players by stealing their hard-earned artifacts!

A more involved form of the game Clue, Wadjet's playing pieces, board, cards, and handouts are first class. Players take the roles of expedition leaders searching for lost treasures, searching tombs and trying to avoid awakening the guardian spirits within. Just getting into a tomb is not enough, you have to avoid traps, superstitious help, and plain old bad luck.

Through the process of investigating the 4 main tombs, each player eliminates treasures from their list, until they can guess at the final treasure buried in the central tomb. A player may only try to claim the final treasure if they've accumulated enough of the other treasures, and have gotten them safely into their own base camp.
