About the Game

Welcome to Trifouilly-les-Oies. The fields will be replaced with a commercial zone. Your mission: save the archaeological sites from destruction. Will you be able to resist to the weather and unforeseen events? Will you finish the research in time?

Operation Archéo offers you two game modes : a "Family" mode or an "Expert" mode, and three levels of difficulty. It is played solo and up to 6 players, from 9 years. The parts last 30 or 90 minutes depending on the desired duration. The optional web application can be used free of charge.

In Operation Archéo, teamwork is at the heart of the game. Each of the six archaeologists has unique abilities. Who will you choose to incarnate? Séverine the team leader and her motivation techniques? Franck the backpacker and his paternalistic advice? Raphael the resourceful? Mélanie the hard to cook? Youssef the perfectionist? Anaïs the ingenous?

Search the ruins left by the men of prehistoric mens, the Gallic, the Roman and the French of the Middle Ages. Castles, aqueducts, houses, temples, cemeteries, churches and many more are only waiting for you to be discovered in scenarios inspired by real archaeological excavations.
