Description

King Baniskorett, ruler of Gemstone Island, does not have an heir to the throne. Therefore, he has set up a competition to determine who will be next in line as King or Queen of Gemstone Island. A good king or queen will be able to skillfully hide and protect the island’s treasure.

To win this competition, you must be the first player to successfully bury a complete collection of each of the gemstones native to Gemstone Island. There are seven valuable gems to be found here: rubies (red), emeralds (green), sapphires (blue), diamonds (white), amethysts (purple), citrine (yellow), and topaz (orange). As you attempt to complete your mission, any of the following may happen: a hole in your sack, an earthquake, someone switching sacks with you (without your permission, of course!), someone bumping into you and picking up the gems you drop, or even another player digging up all that treasure you worked so hard to bury!
