About the Game

"El Dorado discovered in Estado de Para!"

With the discovery of a large gold deposit, Brazil erupted into a frenzied gold rush. Over ten thousand workers swarmed to become garimpeiro (gold prospectors in Portuguese) and make their millions. The greed filled desires of the garimpeiro and their patrons bored deep holes into the earth like an inverted pyramid, and the once lush jungles were quickly stripped naked, giving the name of Serra Pelada to the dig site - "the Naked Mountain".

In Garimpeiro, each player becomes a patron of the garimpeiro (gold prospectors) who will lead them to seek fame and gold ore through various actions, in order to become the greatest man or woman in Serra Pelada. It is a full-fledged worker placement game that simulates the excitement of gold prospecting.
