About This Game

In Retro Relics, you follow in the footsteps of your late Grandpa, a passionate metal detectorist. Explore nature and search for various relics with your metal detector. Roam freely with no time limits—detect, dig, help others find their lost belongings, and complete your coin and relics collection!

You can find relics from all eras (from bronze age to modern) 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 sassy old lady at her villa, a slightly confused hunter and many more interesting characters.

Collect more than 130 different relics from various eras and rarities.

Decorate your personal museum and display your rarest and prettiest finds:

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

At your cozy home you can sell artifacts, accept new missions via email, manage your collection and upgrade your gear.
