Tiletum: Prospect for Silver
Players operate Renaissance-era merchants who send prospectors into underground mine maps to extract silver as a new resource. Movement of prospectors across these Underground tiles determines where silver is gathered and how efficiently it is produced. Silver is spent to recruit scholars and artisans and to buy Technologies that grant lasting benefits. Players may also build structures such as underground houses and cathedrals within mines to improve production and score. The game combines route planning on modular mine maps with resource management and technology acquisition as players expand into new territories.

Rules questions
Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.
Can I split the Action Points between the King Action and the Prospector Action if they share a dice section?
No. Choose one of the two Actions; you cannot split the Action Points between them, and you only get the Bonus tokens for the Action you chose (p. 8).
Does Silver count as a Resource, and can I get it through a resource exchange?
No. Silver is not a Resource, so you cannot gain it by spending 2 Gold as a Task or through a Contract exchange (p. 6).
Can I advance on a Technology track whenever I want, and do earlier tiers still count?
You may spend Silver to advance on any Technology track as a Task at any time during your turn. The costs for tiers I, II, and III are 1, 2, and 3 Silver respectively, and your current tier’s effect and all lower-tier effects remain active (p. 7).
When I move my Prospector across a Stone Tablet, do I stop there?
The rules say to resolve the Stone Tablet’s effect immediately when you cross it, then cover it with an “X” tile. They do not say that you must stop on the space (p. 8).
When do my Underground Mines give me Silver, and do I get a new Mine during the King phase?
Before Step 1 of each King phase, each of your Underground Mines produces 1 Silver. During Step 1, you gain a Mine from the general supply if your marker is on the 0 VP space or higher, plus any Silver shown by the blue ribbon at your King track space (p. 9).
