During the first half of the last century the blood-soaked field of the Far-West, the hunting grounds of the expelled Indians were populated by white settlers. New towns were born, where many adventurers, soldiers of fortune even robbers were living. On the roads public security was nil. Brave travellers, hunters, miners were much threatened. The players drop in to this venturesome world written by Charles May as well. Their goal is to pass through the marked direction at least five to six times amid many adventures and dangers and to gain as many mining, fishing and hunting fields as possible. In the fields where the treasure of the Silver Lake is hidden gold nuggets are found which are brought by the Bank of New Orleans presuming that the player is not robbed along the way. The winner is, who made the biggest fortune at the end. We wish you exciting adventures on the way! (straight from the back of the box) This monopoly-type game is based on the book Der Schatz im Silbersee (in Hungarian: Az Ezüst-tó kincse) by Karl May. Players can buy fishery, shooting and mining concessions instead of buying properties.
