Granna Launches Archeo: Wykopaliska, a Family Co-Op Digging Game
Today marks the release of Archeo: Wykopaliska from Granna, a family-friendly co-op game built around the excitement of digging for the past. Set for quick play sessions, it’s designed to bring players together as they excavate, reconstruct discoveries, and race the clock—before their shovels give out.
Archeo: Wykopaliska is a cooperative experience in which you and your group uncover remnants of earlier times using a spade equipped with a scoop. Gameplay centers on digging through a four-layer board and rebuilding what you find. The digging isn’t without risks: loose stones can damage your tools, adding tension to each excavation attempt. To secure victory, players must reconstruct five fossil boards and collect ten hidden star pieces before their shovels crack.
The game supports 1 to 5 players and is intended for ages 5 and up. Matches take roughly 20 minutes, making it a practical choice for family game nights and casual get-togethers. Archeo: Wykopaliska was also nominated for the Złote Asy (Golden Aces) awards.
Copies are available for around 110 złoty.
What players can expect
In practice, the challenge comes from balancing careful digging with the pressure of completing the required reconstructions and star collection. With a layered play area and tool durability on the line, every round asks the group to coordinate their excavation efforts while avoiding the stones that can ruin their spades.
