Tiny Treasure Grid
Read full descriptionHide full description
Tiny Treasure Grid is a cozy, slightly weird collecting game. Dig tiles on a daily 5Ć5 board, pull strange little treasures out of the dirt, finish sticker album sets, and watch your tiny camp grow from a lone tent into a lamplit home base. EVERY TILE HIDES SOMETHING Spend your daily shovels to reveal what's under the board: Treasure Coins, a spare shovel, one of 24 strange little items ā or a very sincere hole with something funny to say. THE FIND CARD Every item find gets its moment: a big collectible card with its name, a tiny weird line, and its place in your album. Add it to the album ā it's yours. Finds are never taken away. HONEST FINDS, NO TRICKS Pick a focused set and watch the visible counter: every 5th dig reveals a missing item from your focused set, when available. "How finds work" explains everything in plain language. Extra shovels are just more digs ā they never change what the board is hiding. SIX STRANGE SETS Desk Goblin, Soft Survival, Chaos Relic, Treasure Cart, Night Shift, Lucky Junk ā 24 items with personality, kept in a sticker album with silhouettes for what's still buried. YOUR TINY CAMP Camp XP comes from digging, finishing sets and rare finds. Every level adds something you can see: a campfire, a lamp post, a supply crate, a hand-painted sign, bunting over the tent. BOARDS WITH CHARACTER Dig on dark earth ā or switch to Midnight, Neon Relic and Gold Dust boards. Pure cosmetics, same finds underneath. TREASURE PASS An optional auto-renewing monthly subscription ($4.99/month): +20 daily shovels, 2Ć camp XP, premium boards and a rare-find archive. One-time purchases: Lifetime Treasure Pass, Shovel Pouch, Premium Boards, Collection Boost. Free play is the real game ā 15 shovels a day, every set completable. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no tracking, no analytics. Your album lives on your device.
