Treasure, Ready, Go!

About this board game

Treasure, Ready, Go! is a 15-minute game for 2–4 players in which players complete tasks to collect the most treasures.

Each turn begins when the player turns over the hourglass. They then reveal the first treasure card and must complete the task shown before the time runs out. The challenges can take several forms, including pantomiming animals, matching cards, and grabbing for specific animals.

After completing a treasure card, the player faces an important choice. They can stop and keep the treasure cards collected during the round, or they can push their luck by turning over another treasure card and attempting one more task.

The risk is simple: if time runs out, the player loses all of the accumulated treasure cards from that round. Stopping protects the treasures already earned, while continuing offers the chance to collect more before the hourglass empties.

• Players: 2–4
• Playing time: 15 minutes
• Core challenge: Complete varied tasks before time runs out
• Push-your-luck choice: Stop to retain treasures or attempt another card

With its blend of timed challenges, physical actions, and risk-taking, Treasure, Ready, Go! focuses every round on the question of how much treasure is worth risking. Complete cards carefully, decide when to stop, and aim to finish with more treasures than the other players.
