I made this game! woohoo

Was there something in particular that inspired you to make it?

  • I collect artifacts/coins as a hobby, and I often come across things that are undocumented/unattributed. Saw the Met had an open access program and wanted to recreate that feeling with more artifacts:)

Thank you!

Now then, how was the player supposed to figure out that rectangular gold thing with the four semispheres? Were there clues I missed?

I love the 'top 80%!' bit, by the way!

  • It's pretty nondescript but that specific piece was from a pretty famous Avar horde uncovered in Albania. There's a sizeable collection at the Met with things that look similar. Keep an eye out for the rivets and rectangular gold sheets like that, they're belthook designs for nomadic riders!
