Modern-Day Treasure Hunters From the introduction: In Artifacts & Adventure, players take on the role of modern-day treasure hunters who seek out lost and stolen relics, returning them to their rightful owners. Some treasure hunters work for profit, others for a sense of discovery, or simply because they believe recovering relics is the right thing to do. Treasure hunting is a life of danger, excitement, and globe-trotting adventure. While set in the real world, it’s not uncommon for adventures to veer off into the fantastic, when the legends surrounding the power of these artifacts prove to be true.
