About this board game
Saboteur: The Mother Lode Bonus Pack is a team-based mining game for 2–12 players, played in about 30 minutes. Build a path through a shadowy maze of tunnels to reach the hidden gold—but beware, some players are secretly working against the miners.
As the tunnel takes shape, the group must contend with cave-ins, broken lanterns, and busted pickaxes. Special action cards can let miners steal gold or swap their identity, making it difficult to know who can be trusted.
This bonus pack combines the contents of the original game with the Saboteur 2 Expansion Pack. It also includes a collectors’ card introducing a devious special character, adding another motive to the struggle beneath the surface.
- Team play: Work together—or undermine the opposing side—as the tunnel develops.
- Competing motives: New characters may help the miners, aid the saboteurs, or pursue crystals instead of gold.
- Flexible experience: Play the original game, add the expansion pack, or introduce the collectors’ card.
Every game challenges players to balance cooperation with betrayal. A promising route to the treasure can be disrupted by a single action, while changing identities and unusual goals keep everyone guessing until the final outcome.
Whether your group is focused on reaching the gold or pursuing a different agenda, Saboteur: The Mother Lode Bonus Pack offers a compact mix of hidden motives, team play, and treachery. With multiple ways to combine its contents, each expedition can reveal new secrets in the mine.
