About This Game

Retro Relics is a cozy sandbox and story-driven treasure hunting simulation, where you immerse yourself into nature and search for ancient artifacts with your metal detector. Explore, dig, help other people find lost belongings and complete your coin and relics collection.

You can unearth artifacts from all epochs with the help of your metal detector: coins, buttons, buckles, jewellery, military, religious relics and many more

Uncover the mysteries of ancient ruins, explore lush forests, dusty fields and relax on a treasure hunt at the beach! Many animals can be spotted on your adventures.

Go on numerous search missions for the local people in your town, including a sad dog owner, a strange hunter and a sophisticated archeologist trying to decipher ancient ruins.

People don't only lose treasures - help nature by picking up trash and watch animals come back to their former habitats
