- The game author, Frederic Moyersoen, told us about some game variants, and we implemented all of them!
- Tell us which one is your favourite in the BGA forum.
Gold sharing
Old mine
- The old mine was not as packed with gold... sometimes all you got for your digging was worthless stones!
- Six Шаблон:Card nugget gold cards are replaced by six Шаблон:Card stone cards.
New mine*
- More even gold distribution.
- Each Gold-Digger gets one gold card.
- *This BGA variant is the current 2013 rules.
Game play
Competitive
- Any Gold-Diggers with a Sabotage card (broken pickaxe, lamp or trolley) at the end of a round do not get any gold cards.
- i.e. the gold cards are distributed between the gold diggers who have no broken tool.
- Saboteurs are not affected by this rule.
- Sabotage your Gold-Digger team for greater reward... but not too often, or your team might lose!
Selfish Dwarf
- One Gold-Digger role card is replaced by a Selfish Dwarf.
- If the Selfish Dwarf wins, they get 4 gold nuggets and all other players get 0 gold nuggets.
- If the Gold-Diggers win, the Selfish Dwarf loses with the Saboteurs.
