Big Dig
A polyomino flip-and-write game about archaeologists excavating for artifacts, treasure, and other discoveries. Players draft cards showing digging shapes and cross out matching areas on their personal boards, connecting each excavation to the surface or an existing dig while navigating blocked spaces and using explosives when needed. Three randomly selected objectives determine the goals for each game, with double-sided boards and changing card orientations creating varied layouts.
