What is the goal in Treasure Hunter?
The goal in Treasure Hunter is to escape with the treasure. The hunter already has it when the game begins, so the challenge is entirely about getting out rather than about finding anything.
Why does Treasure Hunter start with the treasure already found?
Treasure Hunter inverts the usual structure deliberately. Most treasure games end at the prize, so beginning with it in hand turns the whole game into an escape and removes any searching from the loop.
Is there combat in Treasure Hunter?
No. Treasure Hunter gives you no weapons or fighting mechanics. Avoiding danger through positioning is the entire defensive toolkit, which is what makes route selection the central skill of every run.
Are runs long in Treasure Hunter?
No. Treasure Hunter uses short runs, which suits a game where the main way to improve is repetition. Failing quickly and seeing which turn caused it is the fastest route to a successful escape.
What makes Treasure Hunter difficult?
