Needs the base game: Excavation Earth
Second Wave introduces two alien races — the Collectors and the Influencers — along with new scoring mechanisms including Achievements, the Observation Barge for market manipulation, and Racial Wildcards that give each race a powerful unique action.
A century from now, alien explorer races scour the ruins of Earth to excavate rare human artifacts and curate the ultimate art collection for museums back home. Each of three rounds begins with card drafting for multi-use action cards, then players race to move across the world map, dig up artifacts, deploy traders to bazaars, and influence prices on the black market. You can sell finds immediately for quick cash or build coherent collections for a bigger payout — the richest alien collector at game end wins. · 2021
