Archaeology and the museum are almost done!

We are continuing to share development news.

Recently, we have been working on implementing the archaeology system.

As you may have noticed, archaeology is not available in the Demo. The ability to obtain exhibits for the museum becomes available later in the game. First, you will need to construct the museum building. After that, you need to hire archaeologists and find bones or other paleontological treasures underground. They are obtained in the same way as minerals. Interestingly, you will have to collect exhibits in pieces in most cases. In one place, you will find a tyrannosaurus skull, its legs in another, and so on. The skeleton of the same animal can even be scattered across different mines. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully explore the entire territory of the mines you have purchased.

Archaeologists' sketch, drawing in progress:

When a part of the skeleton is excavated, it is sent to the museum. There you can see what has already been found and how many parts you still need to find. With each new discovery, the museum becomes more and more filled.

Of course, you don't collect exhibits for no reason. There is a monetary reward for collecting individual parts. The reward will be even greater for collecting an entire exhibit.

Thank you for following the project! We have many important tasks ahead of us in the coming months, as the game's early access release is just around the corner! This means there will be more news about how we are implementing new features in the game.
