-description from the publisher (translated)

In Relic Takers, players delve into a dungeon in search of relics using 2 characters each round. Each character has special abilities and order, so players must select the best character for their needs. Outside of the dungeon, there are requests for specific combinations of relics (combinations of color and number of relics needed to 'complete' a request). Players must acquire these from within the dungeon. This is accomplished by drawing from a bag of relics... but a player's character is limited in how many relics they can carry. Get to greedy and spend too much time in the dungeon and your haul out may be quite a bit sorter than your needs.

The game centers on a press-your-luck mechanic in drawing relics. Players must balance this risk by drafting the right characters to aid them in completing requests. The game ends and the winner is determined when a player completes 6 requests or all 12 crystals are recovered.
