Experience the excitement of gold fever in a highly portable press-your-luck game in which you don't need a table to play. Whoever first draws five gold nuggets out of their bag in Gold Fever wins the game — but if you keep digging gold for too long, you risk drawing so much gravel that you may lose it all! Gold Fever offers fun decision-making with an immediate payoff in a short playing time. The game contains 5 cloth bags and 95 oversized gem pieces. It is dead simple to play and includes four variants to mix up the experience.
