Fossilium
Run a natural history museum focused on paleontology by recruiting paleontologists, excavating sites, and assembling fossil specimens. Players place tiles and collect matching fossil pieces to complete displays, then arrange exhibits in gallery spaces to attract visitors and earn prestige. Develop the museum by adding facilities such as restaurants and auditoriums to increase income and unlock bonuses. Track visitor trends and sell season tickets for additional advantages, while competing for shared action spaces and occasionally aiding rivals to complete iconic fossils. Play proceeds over five rounds of income, construction and filling, opening for visitors, and new excavations; highest prestige after five rounds wins.
