Description

[Edit] [History]

The players are trying to recreate the old ghost town as it looked in the late 19th Century. Remnants of the town are still visible, but where exactly had the Saloon been located?

The players must try to collect all available information about the 19 building sites and see if they can complete the puzzle. A few surviving gold diggers are able to contribute with information, although their memories aren't always reliable!

In 2007, there was an issue of 'Old Town Solo', consisting of the deck of cards from Old Town in a resealable bag. The rules set out 14 puzzles of varying difficulty, in which the player would work out the town plan from a starting set of those cards. The full game components were not required. A new edition of the Old Town rulebook also appeared in 2007, containing 12 of these 14 puzzles (the original 2004 rulebook had had 8, but these were omitted from the 2006 revision).
