AE: Archeological Expedition is an archaeology game about excavating artifacts at 18 dig sites inspired by real locations around the world. You clear earth with tools to uncover finds ranging from Bronze Age beads to Egyptian amulets. The deeper you dig, the further back in time you travel.

Artifacts and history

The game includes 160 artifacts inspired by real archaeological finds, including Egyptian amulets, Roman mosaics, Greek gold wreaths and Persian cylinder seals. Each artifact has a description explaining its historical significance, materials and era. New discoveries are recorded in a journal where you can track your finds and see what remains to be collected.

Tools and expeditions

You can excavate with three tools, each available in Bronze, Silver and Gold tiers:

• Brush: carefully uncovers artifacts in perfect condition.
• Shovel: balances speed and care.
• Pickaxe: breaks through tough rock, but can damage fragile artifacts underneath.

The Bulldozer is also available for larger-scale digging. Each tool swing costs time, and a storm ends the expedition, so you must decide where to spend your time. You earn money from your finds to upgrade your gear or buy Artifact Strongboxes, which offer a chance to obtain artifacts that have been difficult to find. Collecting more artifacts in Perfect condition unlocks additional sites.

Dig sites and eras

The 18 sites span 10 historical eras, from Prehistoric to Medieval, with locations including the sands of Alexandria and the grasslands of York. The sites are arranged in layers, taking you further back in time as you dig. The game also includes leaderboards for each dig site and lifetime statistics boards.
