New Arcade Game: Shattered History / Archeology Wars 🏺

How Does it work? / Details :question:

This Game will have Solos, Duos, Trios, Squads and Mega. PvP is involved

There will be different teams competing each other to find missing pieces of a giant clay jar, first to find all the missing pieces wins. Along the way there will be also artifacts that you will find like, fossils, rune stones, weapons, treasure chests, jewelry, cloth, rocks, ancient scriptures and text, spell books, etc. . .

You can also steal th other team’s artifacts.

You will start with a wooden pickaxe, to upgrade it, you need to sell the artifacts.

These artifacts will give you XP, the amount of XP that the artifact gives will depend on it’s rarity. You can also sell the artifacts to upgrade your pickaxe (Value of artifacts depend on rarity).

For Example,

  • Fossils will be worth 2 XP
  • Rune Stones will be Worth at 3 or 4 XP depending on its variant.

And so on. . .

How to get weapons? :crossed_swords:

Since PvP is involved, you’ll also need weapons. The weapons that will be used for this game are swords. You’ll start with a wooden sword, to upgrade it you’ll need to sell the artifacts. Once you upgrade it, it will turn into an iron sword, after that youcan no longer upgrade it. (Note: The weapons you obtain from excavating and digging cannot be used for PvP.)

Types of Spellbooks :open_book:

Reveal - This Spell Book will not give you XP, but if you activate it, you will see the outline of the buried artifacts for 1 second, not all artifacts will show an outline because if it did the spell books would be too overpowered. Also this item will be extremely rare.

Curse - Makes your opponent blind for 3-5 seconds or reduces the durability of their Pickaxes

Support - Grants the ability to summon a monster to help you sabotage your opponents or help you mine (Monster will disappear after 10-30 seconds)

I think costumes are supposed to be more rare than that

Also, what unlocks will you get to make the game look better?

Cool game, but some changes would help :))

Yes. A perfect game for it. I don’t think it would fit with the other games tbh

Good idea, but the game might get sort of boring after a while, because it sounds just like a mining simulator. Maybe there should be a way to sabotage other teams? This could be done by allowing people to steal other teams’ pieces or break other teams’ jars. Adding some sort of pvp element would definitely make it less repetitive.

Bump! (Sorry) Let’s hope this will be the Arcade’s Secret Game! :crossed_fingers:

Well uh
Hive has been working on arcade for a long time, I doubt they would instantly add a suggestion that was suggested in March

The arcade not mixed arcade

Hey there :wave:
I cannot describe this beautiful suggestion. You have my vote.
Archeology wars will definitely attract a lot of players to the Hive, and if Hive supports Archeology wars (if it gets added) with updates in the future I’m sure this game would be successful :smile:

Have a Beetastic day/evening! :beedance:

Bump, there are (I think 3-5) pedestals with no NPCs on it in the arcade hub.

Bump for new forumers to see, and I added new features to it. If you think some features are too OP or useless or boring, let me know so that I can improve it.
