About the game
Silver & Gold sends 2-4 treasure hunters across a series of wipe-clean island maps, drawing new terrain cards each round and marking out islands, coves, and treasures on their personal boards. Every card revealed can be used by all players simultaneously, keeping downtime low and pace brisk. Careful placement determines which treasures you can claim before your map runs out of room. Designed by Phil Walker-Harding, it's built for fast, repeatable adventuring. Its reusable dry-erase cards mean endless replays without waste.
Hobbli's Notes
Silver & Gold is a lovely little filler: the simultaneous flip-and-write format keeps everyone engaged at once, and the reusable cards make it an easy one to bring out again and again. It won't satisfy players craving deep strategy, but as a light, breezy treasure hunt it delivers exactly what it promises.
