About the game

What is Ruins?

Craft unique, transparent cards in this shedding game where you uncover ancient ruins and find treasure. On your turn, upgrade a card and play it. Upgrades can stack into wild, game-altering combinations (like a card that equals four 11’s!). You get to claim two cards the entire game – how will you construct the perfect combo? Race to play your last card and score! —description from the publisher
