Pyramido: Forgotten Treasures

About the game

What is Pyramido: Forgotten Treasures?

Deep within the heart of a lush and mysterious jungle lies proof of a vanished tribe’s existence: the emerald canopy of Pyramido. Tales speak of majestic pyramids concealed beneath dense vegetation, each cradling precious gems of unimaginable worth. You’ll embark on a daring quest to unveil these wonders. Pyramido: Forgotten Treasures is a standalone game where you become an intrepid explorer venturing into hidden ruins with one precise goal: collect the largest fortune possible! During their adventure, each player uses Dominoes to explore their own Pyramid. As a tile placement game, players take turns choosing a Domino and an available Gem from the corresponding space. To maximize their points, players must create areas with colored gem icons while placing their Dominoes and use Gems of the matching color to activate these as scoring areas. Each choice of Domino and its positioning has a significant impact since the previous stages influence the score throughout the game. A game is played over 4 stages and each stage is scored once completed. Whoever earns the most points wins the game and the title of Great Explorer.
