About This Game

Your little seaside museum has a lot of empty cases. Luckily, the tide keeps leaving things behind.

See what the shore left behind

Take a brush to the sand and uncover shells, sea glass, fossils and lost treasures. Each trip gives you a limited number of strokes, so choosing where to dig matters.

Work your way across ten shores and discover 50 coastal curiosities, from tiny beach finds to old ship's instruments!

Give every find a home

Place your discoveries in a seaside museum and watch visitors wander in, stop at the cases and bring the rooms to life. A duplicate is still worth finding: it improves an exhibit and the income that exhibit earns.

Complete a shore's collection to restore its museum room with new details and furnishings!

Come back with better tools

Spend your coins on stronger tools, wider strokes and new ways to dig. Later, an aimed sweep lets you work along a chosen row or column. Each upgrade changes what you can reach on your next trip.

When you're ready for a new summer, earn pearls for lasting upgrades and begin again with a little more help. There's always another corner of the shore to search!
