"AE: Archeological Expedition" takes you to 18 dig sites inspired by real locations around the world. Pick up your tools, clear away the earth, and discover what history left behind. From tiny Bronze Age beads to golden Egyptian amulets, every artifact is a small surprise waiting in the soil.
Every artifact in the game is inspired by real archaeological finds. Uncover Egyptian amulets, Roman mosaics, Greek gold wreaths, and Persian cylinder seals. Each comes with a hand-written description explaining its historical significance, materials, and the era it belongs to.
Three trusty tools, each with their own personality:
Brush - Gentle and careful. Every artifact comes out in perfect condition.
Shovel - A good balance of speed and care.
Pickaxe - Great for tough rock, but watch out for anything fragile underneath.
Each tool comes in multiple tiers. And when you're ready to go big, there's always the Bulldozer. Mind the sky, though — the storm ends every expedition, and every swing of a tool costs precious time. Spend it where it counts.
Every new find is recorded in your journal. Track your discoveries, see what you're missing, and complete your collection.
From the sands of Alexandria to the grasslands of York, 18 dig sites await across 10 historical eras, stacked layer upon layer — the deeper you dig, the further back in time you travel. Earn money from your finds to upgrade your gear, or spend it on Artifact Strongboxes for a chance to get artifacts that keep eluding you. The more Perfects you collect, the more sites you unlock.
