Jäger des verlorenen Mülls

So viel wie wir in diesem Spiel graben, könnten wir auch super auf einer Farm arbeiten.

Gameplay
Im “Treasure Hunter Simulator” erkunden wir nicht alte Ruinen in Venezuela und laufen vor rollenden Felsen davon, wie man vielleicht erst vermuten würde. Stattdessen suchen wir die Schätze lieber auf bodenständige (Tschuldigung!) Art: Mit einem Metalldetektor. Das Prinzip des Spiels ist mega simpel. Kommen wir in die Nähe eines Schatzes, bekommen wir einen Hinweis und müssen mit dem Metalldetektor die genaue Position herausfinden und graben anschließend den Schatz mit der Schaufel aus. Ich kann nur sagen, dass man als moderner Schatzjäger sehr viel Müll findet. Aber hey, immerhin helfen wir der Umwelt. Im Verlauf der Story reisen wir zu den verschiedensten Orten, von denen man sicherlich schon einmal irgendwie gehört hat wie z.B. vom Aratsee und dem verschwunden Nazigold, aber auch nach Gettysburg, der Entscheidungsschlacht des amerikanischen Bürgerkrieges.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2794715751
Das Spiel wird allerdings sehr schnell repetetiv, auch wenn man neugierig ist, was man so als Nächstes ausgräbt. Viele kleine Veränderungen, wie z.B. das man Müll einfach schnell aufhebt, würden dem Spiel hier wirklich helfen. Trotzdem hat mich dieses repetetive Gameplay irgendwie entspannt. Gelegentlich bekommt man noch ein paar Sonderaufträge, in denen wir Wege ablaufen oder bestimmte Bilder schießen müssen. Das sorgt aber wirklich nur sehr bedingt für Abwechslung.

Story
Im Storymode gibt es keine wirkliche Geschichte, außer dass wir ein berühmter Schatzjäger werden wollen. Irgendwas war da noch mit einem Onkel, der auch mal Schatzjäger war, aber da es nur über E-Mails läuft, spielt es keine große Rolle. Nett sind allerdings die Details zu gefunden Schätzen, die uns Einblicke in die Geschichte von Gegenständen wie Munition, Waffen oder Haushaltsgegenständen wie Nadeln bieten.

Grafik/Sound
Als Indiespiel ist die Grafik jetzt nicht besonders gut, aber ich fand die naturnahen Regionen schön in Szene gesetzt. Allerdings hätten andere Personen oder Wildtiere das Spiel bereichert und es nicht so statisch erscheinen lassen. Man hört ja teilweise Tiergeräusche, aber alleine so etwas wie Vögel am Himmel hätten dem Spiel einfach gut getan. Manche Level sind schöner, manche weniger.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2794716070
Die Musik fand ich sehr angenehm und ruhig. Hat zur Entspannung beigetragen und mir auch klar gemacht, dass der Titel insbesondere der Entspannung dienen soll.

Fazit
Ich glaube, der „Treasure Hunter Simulator“ wird oft missverstanden, auch wenn ich die negativen Reviews hier gut verstehen kann. Das Spielprinzip ist wirklich eintönig. Allerdings ist es auch im echten Leben nicht sehr spannend, mit einem Metalldetektor herumzulaufen und darauf zu hoffen, etwas zu finden. Trotzdem finde ich es sehr interessant und stell es mir als nettes Hobby vor. Die Idee hinter dem Spiel ist schon eher gemächlich. Man soll in friedvoller Atmosphäre einfach ein wenig Erkunden. Für manche Personen ist das langweilig, mich hat es einfach entspannt. Allerdings könnten viele Quality of Life Verbesserungen für ein besseres Spielgefühl sorgen und das Spiel hätte wirklich, wirklich mehr sein können. Ich würde es definitiv nicht zum vollen Preis empfehlen, aber im Angebot, wo man es für 1,40 € bekommt, kann man es sich überlegen. Man darf aber wirklich nicht viel erwarten.

Hat dein Detektor auf gute Reviews angeschlagen? Dann grab doch mal in meiner Steamgruppe herum, wo noch viele weitere Reviews warten.

Spiel ist völlig verbuggt.
Nachdem ich einige Schauplätze gespielt hatte, finde ich mit dem besten Detektor, ausgenommen von den Questen zu den legendären Gegenständen, nur noch Schrott und minderwertige Gegenstände. Beispiel: Schauplatz Gettysburg, obwohl völlig abgesucht und mehrfach 'resettet', geht nur bis 96% und einen intakten Quarter habe ich nie gefunden.

In theory, a nice game for those who would like to hunt for treasures and wanted ever do, but cant.

Some nice locations, but could have been spiced up with animals and more buildings or similar.

What is immensely annoying, however, is the bug, which was supposedly fixed, but still exists.
In the story mode, you have to fulfill certain tasks, including finding legendary items in certain places. And this is still the crux of the matter - often you can search for hours at the specified location, but nothing is there. You can only dig if the game allows you to - that is, if something is displayed that you can dig up. If nothing is displayed, there is nothing to dig. So you are always forced to reload maps and hope that at some point the treasure is there. This waste of time is extremely annoying at some point and really spoils the desire to continue playing at all.

The free mode is so boring - has no challenge, so this is not an option for me anyway. I can waste my time much better with other things - too bad.

Ein wirklich toller Simulator für alle, die schon immer mal mit Metalldetektoren auf Schatzsuche gehen wollten aber keine Lust zum Buddeln haben :D
Es gilt wirklich schöne und abwechslungsreiche Landschaften, Biome und Sehenswürdigkeiten zu erkunden. Das Spiel ist sehr entspannend und entschleunigend. Nix zum mal eben Durchrushen - warum auch?! Okay die Story aus dem Story-Mode ist nicht wirklich fesselnd, aber sie ist immerhin vorhanden und leitet einen durch alle Level.
Fazit: Lohnenswert für alle Simulator -Fans die sich ein bisschen Abenteuer und Erkundung wünschen.

Gutes Spiel für zwischendurch, grafisch und gameplay-technisch nicht schlecht aber auch nicht überwältigend. Zu Beginn konnte ich gar nicht genug davon bekommen, doch die Missionen und die Objekte die man finden kann wiederholen sich relativ schnell, wenn man dann aber mal einen einzigartigen Gegenstand findet freut man sich umso mehr. Es gibt einige Kleinigkeiten die stören, z.B. kann der Charakter nicht springen oder man muss selbst die offensichtlichsten Objekte untersuchen um herauszufinden um was es sich handelt. Zumindest werden Objekte die man in genau dem gefundenen Zustand schon einmal gefunden hat direkt nach dem Reinigen aufgedeckt. Das Gameplay funktioniert und bis auf kleinere Grafikbugs kam es zu keinen Abstürzen oder Gamebreakern, lediglich einmal konnte ich eine Mission nicht beenden, da ich das Gebiet schon komplett abgesucht hatte und allen Schrott weg gebracht, dann musste ich die Region mit dem Reset-Button zurücksetzen und nochmal alles sammeln, hier hätte man mitdenken können. Auch hatte ich mir etwas mehr erwartet als nur mit dem Metalldetektor unterwegs zu sein, spannende Orte zu finden und ein bisschen zu buddeln.

Trotz alledem ist das Spiel zumindest in einem Sale den Preis wert und für kurzweiligen Spaß und Menschen mit Interesse an Archäologie und trashigen Simulatoren genau das Richtige!

Die ersten Stunden in dem Spiel sind recht unterhaltsam. Man bekommt erste Aufgaben zugeteilt, findet Müll und auch den ein oder anderen Schatz. Leider kam ich nach einiger Zeit an einen Punkt an dem ich meine Aufgabe nicht erfüllen konnte, der Rat in den Foren half mir weiter. Das Problem scheint lange zu existieren oder erneut zu existieren, war ich offensichtlich nicht der Erste der an dieser Aufgabe scheiterte. Dazu kommt ein häufiges Auftreten von Grafikfehlern; der Sammler greift durch den Boden, Objekte werden nicht ordentlich angezeigt, die Sprühdose zum Reinigen besitzt keine Textur, ein Objekt muss unzählige Male gewendet werden um entdeckt zu werden. Und mein bester Freund, die Warnung das ich aus der Position heraus nicht graben kann. Schade, scheint das Spiel doch durchaus ein Potenzial zu haben. Aber.. Mit der neuesten und besten Technik ausgerüstet erwarte ich in höheren Gebieten einfach mehr als die x-fachste rostige Schraube für 1 Dollar, vor allem da die Reisekosten nach und nach anziehen.

ist nur was für Leute welche dieses Hobby in der Realität ausüben und lieben. Ansonsten würde ich die Finger von dem Game lassen.
Grafik ist höchstens ok, ein optisches Highlight hab ich nicht erwartet, ist aber auch ziemlich unoptimiert.
Gameplay naja auch ok.
Ansonsten ist es ja ganz witzig gemacht, vor allem das mit den tonnen an Müll ausgraben, wer kennt das nicht in dem Hobby ;D Allerdings muss man auch klar sagen, abseits von einem Seben, würde man im RL nie so viel Müll (vor allem Eisen) ausgraben. Da fehlen mir so Feinheiten im Gameplay wie einen Diskriminator oder unterschiedliche Töne. Ist halt alles nur Oberflächlich und sehr Arcardig gemacht.
Für 5€ finde ich das als RL Verfechter dieses Hobbys echt ganz witzig, darüber hinaus oder für alle anderen würde ich es lieber sein lassen.

Nach 9 Stunden Spielerfahrung kann ich sagen: Das einzig interessante an dem Spiel sind die Steam Errungenschaften.
Das Spiel hat Potenzial, dies wurde aber überhaupt nicht ausgenutzt. Komplett linear klickt man sich durch die Level und verschwendet seine Lebenszeit durch suchen von Nägeln oder Kronkorken um irgendwann den Questgegenstand zu finden, damit man in der nächsten Map so weiter machen kann. Um von spannenderen Spielen mal ein paar Minuten abzuschalten ( falls man Simulator Fan ist ) , ist das Spiel für maximal 5 Euro ok. Mehr sollte man hier definitiv nicht investieren und Eure Erwartungen beim Spielstart könnt ihr auch getrost in den Keller stellen.

This game is only worht getting when it's on90% sale or something, if that.

While it's nice to play when you need something to do that does not take up brianpower, it has too many problems:
- you mainly dig up trash, valuable and interesting stuff is rare to be found
- the maps are huge, partly nice to look at but often a pain to navigate
- the game is very very buggy. animations don't look too good tbh and I have to complete a map again that took me over an hour because I accepted a quest too late and cannot progress further without resetting the map.

Also, don't be fooled by the photos and videos: the gameplay consists of walking around with a metal detecor. There is nothing to do except walk around, follow the beep of your device, dig up stuff, flail whatever you find around - rinse and repeat.

Picked up this game in a Humble Bundle. Am running a 2021 system that meets or exceeds the recommended spec yet the game just constantly crashes after a few minutes. Haven't even gotten past the new game prompt without it crashing. Verified files and also deleted and re-downloaded. Until the game is fixed you should beware and avoid it.

You get out of this game exactly what it says. The reviews are really mixed, so I'll try to make it clear: It's a treasure-finder simulator where you use a metal detector to find things. They're usually trash. But sometimes you find something pretty cool. It's a lot of walking around pretty scenery and chilling. It's fine if that's not your thing. If you're more an excitement actiony person, don't buy it. But if you're here to chill and listen to a song, video or podcast and just sweep for some cool things for several hours methodically, this is really lovely!

Well, as the title of the game says, you hunt for treasures. I bought this game to play it when I wanted to relax and felt the urge to play something without much brain usage required, and this game did exactly that, relaxing gameplay, decent music, the maps are diverse, sort of, and it doesn't look bad at all.

One thing, though. You're hunting for treasures and that sounds exciting, but most of the time when you'll detect something it's either gonna be a button, a nail, pull rings from cans or half a f*cking fork.

Pretty good.

The game is pretty tedious and you end up finding a lot of trash rather than treasure. I thought the graphics and different locations would be cool to explore, but there's not much depth in its lore or in the number of locations it has to begin with. For $2 though, I can't complain too much. Just don't but it for full price.

the moment i truly gave up on this game is when i found a horse head ornament in good condition on the scottish coast and it didnt add it to my collection. this was after i beat the game too.

other gripes:
The game is set up to have an ending but upon finishing the final objective of your uncle's will, nothing. no final email, no congratulations, not even rolling credits.

Some of the coolest things you can uncover are only good for selling. Viking helmet, ancient Roman Gladius (a sword), Prosthetic iron nose, Viking axe head in unusually pristine condition, all only good for a quick buck. You know what one of the things you CAN collect for your office? old hammer heads. wtf.

There is a bizarre inconsistency with where you can find certain historical items. the one that still stands out to me is how i found an old Norman nasal helm (William the Conquerer's soldiers wore them) in an oasis in Oman (country next to Saudi Arabia for the geographically challenged.) I feel like this game is insulting my intelligence.

One thing I WONT whine about is the amount of garbage and trash you uncover while treasure hunting. A real Treasure hunter using a metal detector is going to uncover lots of useless refuse. A lot of game reviewers complained about this but i think it just makes it all the sweeter when you finally find something valuable.

i love treasure hunting its one of my favorite hobbies! and its why i purchased this one!
but i had to change this review to bad cuz after playing it so long and finding out that you only come across the same old items. which 99 percent are trash!! well i am only just gonna wait for the second game coming out and with this game being only 17 dollars is kinda too much for a game that feels repetitive and empty imo, it really should be 10 or 5$ imo. and it crashed on me once when i was playing for like 1 hour and it made me so froze up to where i could not use task manager to close it out or anything which led to me having to power off my pc and back on i am just gonna wait for the second one.

edit i am finally refunding this game and getting my $2 back.

Received this as a gift

Very much a hurry up and wait walking sim. Game and creators did not account for players who enjoy exploring areas when first entering so I frequently ran in to needing to reset my maps until I took the hint. Learn from my mistakes and return once quests are finished.

Game has plenty of bugs and 'mechanics' that can make even the easiest task a royal pain in the rear end. Graphics at a distance are pleasant but horrid up close (how?). Pictures that served as clues for treasures didn't always add up for me and made one or two quests way longer than they should have.

Would have been more in favor of recommending but devs have already moved on to create another instead of fine tuning the first.

Recommend for boosting stats. Don't recommend for anything else.

First off, do not play this if you do not like IRL metal detecting. This is a walking sim with a metal detector gimmick, so there is almost zero possible way you'll enjoy it UNLESS you enjoy metal detecting. I do. So I did enjoy this. But I can't say this is something I'd recommend just anybody.

That said, the game as it stands has several game breaking bugs. For example, on one occasion I had to photograph flowers, only to find that everywhere the flowers spawned, there was no indication that the picture was there, and sure enough; Any attempt would not trigger the event.

Also many typos, poor grammar, mismatched historical facts, WRONG historical facts, seams-to-infinity in the world, floating assets, and just overall pi**-poor optimization make this Unreal game play worse than some of the Unity games out there. Like, how in the hell am I getting screen tearing with v-sync on? How the hell am I getting screen tearing AT ALL on a computer that is literally state of the art with current drivers and brand new hardware? Seriously.

I'm still excited about the second game. But I very much hope that these issues are fixed out of it. Get an editor. Check your history. Make sure your meshes are manifold, or at least connected to one another so it doesn't show up in world. Optimize, optimize, optimize.

I hope to play and be able to recommend the next game. This, unfortunately, misses too many boxes that I need to even suggest it to people who metal detect.

I am actually quite sad because this game had some intereting potential. And developers were surprisingly close to deliver us an unavoidable indie game. But instead, we have this fancy and intriguing air-filled package. Fresh air yes, but you will soon realize it's gone after something like an hour of gameplay. The main flaw of 'Treasure Hunter Simulator' is its crude repetitiveness, but it also has many others. The objectives are not always clear. Sometimes they are shown on the map, sometimes not, so you waste time on each mission only to realize that you just had to look at the big yellow dot floating in the corner of the map to succeed. The graphics are barely decent: the landscapes and lighting are great but as soon as you get close to the details, it gets ugly as hell. The animation your character does every time you pick up an object often made me vomit because you see the ground and the objects in question in the most hideous and pixelated way. In addition to its repetitive gameplay, the game is just awfully slow. I finished it by running from start to finish. So why add the ability to walk in this case? You can upgrade your stuff but yeah, the gameplay doesn't even change a bit doing so. It is buggy and unrewarding.

If like me you bought a metal detector in the 70s & 80s, then this game is for you. Remember the thrill of the sound and the digging only to find the infamous can pull ring? Yes - if you recall those heady days this game is for you. If however you do not - then ask yourself what you want from the game before buying it. Given the 85% off - you could just risk it?

This is a relaxing scenic exploration game. Like fishing, you have to be very patient. There are several maps to explore and treasure to find. The atmosphere is also very soothing.

For those complaining that this game is boring, what did you expect? You're searching for treasure in the ground, not fighting some zombie dirt monster who's trying to kill you. If you don't have the patience to slow down and relax, go find another game.

Pros:
1. The graphics are beautiful.
2. The different maps are beautiful and there are many places to explore.
3. The music is lovely and calming.
4. The game is very relaxing.

Cons:
1. If you get stuck, you are teleported all the way back to spawn.
2. You can't jump.
3. Sometimes the treasure is right next to a tree which makes it hard for the metal detector to reach it.
4. The ambient dims for no reason like it's about to get dark, then it goes right back to being bright and sunny. This is frustrating when I am trying to take a screenshot because it makes the photos look darker than they should be.

9/10 would recommend if you like patient relaxing games where you can hunt for treasure and explore

Game is buggy especially with the objectives, visuals looks good but awful at the same time + no motion blur (made me dizzy in an hour). Maps are small, gets boring after 10-15 mins. Treasures/items that are found are pretty much the same and not much variance. Pretty interesting for the first 30-60 minutes, then its pretty boring. Sadly there's not much other than trash hunting really. I would say its recommended for those that are into treasure hunting, other than that I'm not really recommending this. For the price itself, its not worth it unless you can get it at a discount.

I just played this a little bit so far, but I'm really enjoying how relaxing it is~ I like stuff like this so I don't have to think so hard with my normal games that I play (lolz). In all seriousness though, It could use some more to involve the player, but other than that, it is simple and straightforward. The graphics are well done too. The visual representation is appealing, which also matches up with the music (the fireplace in the office is a nice touch as well for ambiance). This game is made for those that like simplicity but exploratory games. An...Asmr version of Lara Croft's manor if you will ^^ heheh

I wish I could have rented this. There's absolutely no replay value, but it's amusing for a few hours. Gameplay does not change in any appreciable way after the first non-tutorial stage, and you end up staring at the detection emblem the whole time, so you don't even notice much of the scenery. The nicest touch is that the metal detectors actually change appearance when you swap them.

First thing to address: I don't understand all the people who are complaining that this game is boring. It's a metal detector simulator - just how exciting were you expecting it to be? Did you think that this sounded like it would be high-action hijinks?

I didn't, which is probably why I like it. I was expecting to wander around some pretty and/or historic scenery and listen for beeping, and that's what I got. I was surprised that there was a story mode because I wasn't sure how one turns using a metal detector into any sort of a story. Turns out that the game didn't really know how to make a real story either, but they figured out to give you quests of sort to go poke around in different places and you might as well pull out your metal detector while you're there.

The graphics are good but not spectacular - you're definitely not going to forget that you're playing a video game, but it's not terrible. What I had more problems with was the fact that the game is inherently designed to make you want to wander everywhere you possibly can on the map, but I've gotten stuck a number of times or managed to wander into places I probably wasn't supposed to be able to get to. Fortunately, the game designers were self-aware enough to give you the option of unsticking yourself by teleporting back to the starting point, so you don't have to quit the map when that happens, but it's kind of bothersome that they did that instead of figuring out how to keep you from getting stuck in the first place. In fact, between that and the fact that there's graphical glitches in some places - never bad enough to ruin the game but enough to make you go 'heh, that looks weird' - I can't recommend this game at full price because it doesn't seem polished enough for that.

All that being said, I like the game. It's a good game for when I'm in the mood to veg out and relax, probably watch something at the same time. Actually using the metal detector is pretty intuitive for me - I'll note that while I play with the sound on there's enough visual indicators that you could play it with the sound off if you wanted to. But you do need to keep in mind that the most exciting thing that happens in this game is that you find something that isn't junk every once in awhile. If you need more excitement in your life, this isn't the game for you. If you want a game you can veg out to though, pick it up on sale.

Treasure Hunter Simulator from developer Drago Entertainment is an a-typical, walking simulator, exploration game with a calm, soothing atmosphere.

As far as storyline goes. The player is an archeologist by trade (obviously) and has to take on jobs / contracts, which take him, to several (eleven, to be exact) locations, spread over three different continents. Most of the travel locations are situated in Europe. Storyline is one hundred percent linear, jobs can vary from digging up treasures, finding specific locations and / or items on the map, even a speed-run where you have to get from point a to point b within a set amount of time. There is the option to sell collected items, to raise funds for travelling and / or to buy more expensive, efficient metal detectors.

Nearly all activities in the game are tedious and feel unnecessary prolonged. From walking around, scanning with the metal detector, digging up items to eventually identifying them. Walking is extremely slow for a modern first person game, there is an option to run, but it remains rather slow. Scanning with the metal detector can be considered a kind of mini-game, where the mouse movement and precision of the player is crucial. Deliberately the detector movement on screen is delayed a bit to simulate working with a real detector in real life. Fun at first but very annoying later on, especially when the message “can’t dig from here” pops up after a successful scan. Digging is unnecessarily time-consuming, every mouse-click activates another shovel push, then you have to wait until the animation is completed, simply to initiate another one. Items which are buried deeper need even more shovel digs. And, take it from me, there is a lot of digging in this game. Lastly, if the item you dug up is not worthless trash, the identification process starts. Which simply requires the player to rotate with the item in close-up until the identification bar is completely full, which eventually categorizes the item and adds it to your collection. The amount of trash i dug up is ridiculous, really.

Another thing i can not fully grasp, which is more common in other games as well nowadays: is the fact that when the player has to search for something, there is an icon blinking, which can be seen from a long distance, indicating where the player has to be. I mean, what’s up with that, didn’t the point was, the player had to find the location and / or item in the first place?

There are some bugs in the game, nothing game-breaking however. For example: the invert mouse option does not work in the main menu. There is an “unstuck” button when pressing escape during gameplay. So there must be places where the player can get stuck in the scenery. For myself, i did not recall being stuck somewhere in my entire playthrough.

Not all is negative, though. The graphics in Treasure Hunter Simulator are gorgeous and can be run smoothly on lower-end machines as well. Game is built on the well-known Unreal engine. Sound effects and music are excellent as well. When walking through the desert, one can almost feel the heat and sand blowing on your skin. All feels really immersive. Interface is pretty standard for these kind of indie games.

When booting up Treasure Hunter Simulator for the first time, i was pretty determined to seriously commit to it. Not entirely knowing what i was up for, i was expecting a somewhat ennobled walking simulator. And that’s what it essentially is. At first i was really trying to immerse myself in the story and history the game had to offer. Trying to pretend to be an archeologist, thinking as one. Reading all information over items retrieved. With a few hours playing however, Treasure Hunter Simulator’s flaws become a nuisance, to evolve into a tedious grind in order to achieve the perfect game. When i got all twenty-two achievements, i was tremendously relieved not having to come back to the game ever again. Took me ten hours of my spare-time, of which i might only have enjoyed two hours.

To conclude, it really comes down to weighing of the odds on the pros and cons. Graphics are gorgeous, music is excellent, but gameplay is outright tedious and boring.

Recommended, only for achievement hunters, maybe diehard walking simulator lovers. If you are looking for a game similar to this, i can really commend “theHunter: Call of the Wild” instead.

Achievement hunters beware however! Two achievements, “first steps” & “rare”, unlock during the tutorial. One requires to find your very first item, the other one your first rare item. If you are aiming for a perfect game, there is no testing or trying out the game without being committed.

Cheers,
SultanK

Recently, I have seen a lot of ads for various simulator-like games. They are ever present on social networking and I needed to hide them as they were simply too repetitive. The genre itself may get boring after a while - manage your life as a bum, be the police officer on duty to chase bad guys, repair parts of ships in harbours, fix technical issues in a fun park specifically related to roller coasters etc. The list is endless and many of these are ads for upcoming games.

With the above I wanted to say that before trying any of them I got already bored with this mass of ad presence on my Facebook news page. However, I decided to give Treasure Hunter Simulator a try as it was released back in 2018 and back then I remember checking its trailer and falling in love with it, in a way.

There is a story

Yes. You wouldn't need one here, right? Interestingly, you appear to be some sort of heir of a famous person (in this profession, that is) so before you can inherit anything you have to prove yourself worthy. There is always a message related to a new location you unlock - an e-mail you can check on your PC. It is recommended to read everything and accept jobs that you can complete along the way.

Be the detective - detecting treasure with your detector!

Pun aside a magnifying glass will always indicate when a treasure is nearby. When you're the closest your hero automatically pulls out a shovel from his backpack (or pocket or he just conjures it) and you can start digging. And that's pretty much the essence of the game. Some of the locales look beautiful and the soundtrack is also fine. Personally, I recommend that you fire up your good old albums (be it a favourite or something you've not listened to for a while) and off you go treasure hunting.

Issues - the game has some

Garbage: you dig up a lot of these. They are worthless such as a fork or another small piece of metal. As there are so many you do not feel encouraged to find everything (100%) on a map as not many will, in fact, be treasure. Why is this a problem? Because garbage is almost worthless and you need to sell treasures to get a better detector. And with better equipment you find better treasure.
Prestige: the game is all about this. An interesting concept that allows you to level up. For a new (better) detector you not only need money but also a higher level of prestige. You unlock a new location by completing jobs on a previous one the last being the task of finding a legendary item. Jobs give you a lot of prestige - again, not much incentive to remain on a map. You start out, pick up all the jobs, you complete them, you go back to your office (quit at, let's say, 15% completion), pick up new jobs, rinse and repeat. You complete the map at an average 40-50% completion rate with enough money and prestige to move on and you'll never look back.
Proofreading: items you find must be identified to determine their rarity, the metal they are made of, their condition and - ultimately, their value. You also get a nice long description if it is a treasure (especially when it comes to legendary items). There are many grammatical mistakes and very soon the items you find you'll recognise as there are not that many! A little proofreading could have been done before releasing the game.

Summary

THS is an OK game. I had fun with it but unlocked all achievements in 12 hours. What seemed interesting in the first couple of hours turned into a race against time for 100% completion. I tell you what the game feels like: barebone, incomplete. It's fun, though. Especially going around in Jordan or the Oasis looking for treasure. I wish there were fewer worthless items and that it was more difficult to find real treasure. Now we know there has to be a sequel!

Pretty decent metal detecting game for when the weather keeps you inside. For non-detectorists I guess it's a fun treasure hunting game, although seasoned detectorist might have a few issues with how the machines works etc.

But apart from being less realistic than the real thing, absolutely a good game if you just want to sit back, relax, and find ancient treasure!

I just started playing, this is perfect for a hermit like me. I like the slow, relaxed pace of just walking / wandering around, listening to the sounds of nature, and searching for stuff. The barking dogs sound needs to be removed tho. Other reviews complained about repetative junk finds, but that is what happens in real life treasure hunting, find mostly junk. I found / bookmarked a better tutorial on gamepressure.com that is more detailed than in game tutorial. My concept of the ultimate treasure hunting game is treasure hunter simulator combined with open world environment of the far cry series / call of juarez. I would even play this kind of game with other people. Have towns where treasures can be traded with other players or sold, buy goods / gear upgrades, camping gear, drive vehicles (or fly!) to other parts of map, have treasure hunting parties, geo tagging events... a multitude of possibilities, WITHOUT all the stupid violence. Minelab makes real metal detectors. They have a simulator that illustrates the sounds different metals / coins / objects make. That could be incorporated into the game for added realism.

Game well done, I don't have 100's of hours but the time i have played the game ran like a gem, no issue with lag and game seems greatly optimized. The graphics are amazing and your surroundings are beautiful with ambient sounds add to the feeling of being out in nature.

There is two different modes, you can play Explore mode where you can go where you want when you want traveling the globe to different countries and actual places that really exist, which i thought was really cool. So like you can go to Gettysburg and for the most part it looks like Gettysburg.

You can also play like a story line mode where you can do all listed in Explore mode but you also can acquire jobs.
I liked the searching and acquiring of treasure when searching it wasn't over done and is more simple and focused towards the actual searching and digging up items and examining them not making finding treasure an anguishing task.

When you find and dig up items you clean them off and examining them and one of the things i liked the developers put a bit of time in where you identify an object and it's an older item it actually gives you a little history background on the item so you have a good idea of what it is and where it originated from and you get the value and quality of the items.

I think the game is a lot of fun, it's well priced, it seems to have a lot of content where you won't complete the game in a short period of time and if you complete an area and location on the map and want to play again with out starting a new game you can select the area and reset it o play it again. If you like exploration games and want search for treasure, and visit actual locations around the globe this is a good purchase that will give you countless hours of game play and enjoyment.

This game made me feel like a true treasure hunter, an archaeologist!

Always wanted a metal detector but i don't want to share with the government. So instead i bought this game and get to keep everything i find. Ha!

You don't even have to buy the coolest detector, first digital would be enough but you will miss all the fun of grinding - i mean - finding the same items all over again.

The locations look very fascinating and beautiful!

In short the game is good.
Biggest annoying things: detector won't work on hilly surfaces normally, so have to move around... and FATAL ERRORS that cause the game to crash!

There are things I genuinely really liked about this game. The environments are very beautifully rendered (and apparently somewhat faithfully recreated based on actual real-world places?), the music slaps, and I genuinely had a fair bit of fun early on completing missions around the different levels. But unfortunately, the lack of variety in diggable items starts rearing its head eventually. Every now and again you get one or two interesting finds during a story mission, but these are only unlockable in those missions as far as I can tell--there's not a way to discover them organically in the world. Beyond that, it's a lot of rusty nails, bottlecaps, and occasional old ducats and medieval helmets to break up the monotony. Eventually, the beep of the detector just starts getting obnoxious. I want to explore the gorgeously designed maps, not stare at the ground so I can dig up the 25th rusted hacksaw of the day. Everything I like about this game was *in spite* of the gameplay, and not the gameplay itself.

The final straw for me was a glitched out achievement late in the game that wouldn't let me complete it, and one that a lot of people have apparently complained about in the discussion forums. I appreciate the time I had with it, but I wouldn't really recommend it.

I may recommend this game BUT, I'd never pay full price for it. I got mine as part of a dollar bundle and my review would have been completely different if I paid much more.

Overall, it is an enjoyable game if you like a slower, more simplistic type of simulation (personally, this is more arcade-like to me) rather than some of the more complicated intricacies that can come from more in-depth simulators.

PROS

* Relaxing environments to walk through and awesome recreations of various landmarks
* Interesting history tidbits with every unique find
* Good time waster if you don't want to get into anything too heavy

CONS

* Buggy at times... I had to restart the tutorial because one of the dialog boxes disappeared before I can read it
* The time trial missions are completely pointless outside of getting a free trip
* Not recommended for those looking for a good simulation that give it a challenge and can reward/punish you for doing something great/stupid
* Finding legendary treasures offer zero reward

I just recommended against this for Cartogaming and I feel bad because I am actually enjoying Treasure Hunter Simulator. So I want to clarify why I recommend against this for Cartogaming, but do recommend otherwise.

This is a nice calm game and absolutely scratches my very real itch of hunting for hidden items, using specialist equipment and roaming around beautiful environments. Combine the secret areas of Quake with the forensic equipment of Condemned and you have nothing like this game, but there's something similar that's satisfied. Learning about the locations and the treasures, inspecting my collection in my office and going on supplementary photography missions add variety. Personally, I dislike the time trial missions but that's just me.

The issues I have with the game, and reasons I recommend against for Cartogaming, are specifically related to navigation and the missed exploration opportunities. The very concept of treasure hunting is deeply entrenched in figuring out maps, puzzling landmarks and navigating environment. Treasure Hunter Simulator ignores all of these in favour of adopting videogame RPG 'quality of life' standards like a waypoint-based compass and a map that plots your previous path so you can easily track where you've been. It's not bad, but it's not interesting in terms of exploration or navigation and that's just too disappointing to make this a game to recommend for Cartogaming.

I still like it though.

For £3.37 I won't seek a refund but this game needs work in one major area, the hand holding.
It is far too easy almost like a cheat that all you need to do is wait for a blip when walking around then just walk or even run in the direction that the source is coming from by watching the diamond in the corner fill up, then when you have the bar full you just wiggle the metal detector in place and 2 digs (why always 2 digs?) later you have your treasure or trash.
The graphics are fine, the worlds are a little small but I'd much rather just enter the world with a metal detector, a spade and some cleaning tools then do what you do in real life and just skim the detector as you walk along, running with the detector should make it so you can't detect (animate the detector being lifted to the side of the character), digging should involve different depths which the detector dependent on model should respond to, the further in you dig the stronger the signal, maybe a hand held metal detector for skimming over chunks of dirt.
There is so much possibility here but from what I have seen there is no incentive to upgrade the equipment, no real challenge and not enough content to really keep you hooked.
This should be a good casual game where finding a treasure feels like an accomplishment rather than just tracking down the signal easily and whatever algorithm of luck is used for whatever it is you dig up.
A multiplayer experience would be enjoyable just walking around skimming the ground and in the end tallying up to see who made the most.
To sum up, go metal detecting for real, that is what needs to be simulated, no more hand holding unrealistic magic scanners.

I can't finish the game and get last achivement. I found Meteorite on the last map and no more emails shown in my pc. Should I finish all the quests? I stopped taking side jobs at some point and only did main jobs. And now all emails dissappeared and I can't take jobs anymore. Should I finish all the collections? Most of my collections are empty tho I remember I found some of the items that shows missing.
I want to recommend the game but it gets pretty boring at some point and leaves me frustrated at the end.

Treasure Hunter Simulator is a game that has the potential to be good, but its opportunity is squandered by a severe lack of content and variety. Everything outside of the treasure hunting is horrible, and instead of perfecting the focus of the experience, there is an assembly of photography and time trial jobs whose inclusion have absolutely no benefit, they are simply a lazy and worthless excuse for variation. The environments are appealing and fun to explore, but they only cover three continents, so don't expect a world tour. As you traverse the locations, you will dig up the exact same trash and treasure items again and again and again, to the point of ludicrosity, frustration and loathing. The assortment of discoverable objects is pitiful and it prevents any interest or excitement.

Keep hunting, let this one remain dead and buried.

Ok it is what it is: running with a metal detector and digging up junk. And more junk.
I cannot decide if I find this game amusing or just plain stupid, but I have spent 12 hours playing it so somethings gotta give, right?
For the most part your findings will be dissappointing but every now and then you find something unusual to bring home to your collection.
This is a game that I pick up and keep playing if I have absolutley nothing better to do. Don't expect an Indiana Jones exprecience or feel any kind of thrill. It is simply a way to spend time before going to bed, or to help you fall asleep. It is not a good game, but then it is not entirely bad either so I will give thumbs up.

In Short

If this was made in the Apex Engine by a studio that cared this would be an awesome game

My Thoughts

This game has sooooo much potential
It looks like a less polished theHunter COTW but with digging instead of hunting
half the textures such as rocks look incomplete at best
and the lack of background noise doesn't do it any favors

Right now the game is pretty boring, repetitive and unfinished.

Now theHunter is also pretty repetitive but the maps are more well made and have the detail and ambience to keep a person hooked, and theHunter has a bit more variety... there is only a small hand full of treasures on each map and most that hand is filled with buttons and nails.

I picked this game up thinking it was good, boy was I wrong.

The game always tells you when there is treasure nearby without the metal detector even equipped. The only time you can grab the detector out is when the game tells you there is treasure nearby. This takes the fun out of walking around with a detector and trying to find something. I would like to walk around with a detector and find stuff on my own without telling me when preset treasure(which is mainly recycled finds such as needles and buttons) is nearby. Also your character gets stuck on stupid shit. I was in the tutorial and got stuck on a bush. With this being said, I would not recommend this game. Go buy Awesome Metal Detecting instead, in that game you can walk around freely with a detector and find treasure realisticlly without the game telling you when there is something near. Plus you can get coins and stuff in that game to display on you profile.

This is allowing me to live out my childhood dreams as a treasure collector, combined with my love of history. It's very calming, just walking around and digging for stuff. Easy enough to get achievements, too, for those who enjoy getting all the achievements.
The only issue that I have is an incredibly amount of lag. It doesn't cause the game to crash, but it still means that I can't do anything with a time limit, and there are a few side jobs which require running around before the timer runs out. I simply can't do that, with the lag issue.
But I didn't buy this game for running. I bought it for the archaeological aspect, and I'm very pleased with everything. I hate having to sell artefacts, but I do it. I keep anything marked 'Exceptional', and tell myself that I'm probably selling these items to good homes.

Treasure Hunter Simulator is quite a simple game where you visit dig sites all over the world to find treasure using a metal detector.
After playing for 5 minutes you have done everything the game has to offer.
Basicly what you do is finish missions that tell you to make a picture here and there or dig something up.
You receive money for every item you sell and mission you finish, with that money you can travel to other dig sites and buy a better metal detector.

Buying a better metal detector means that you can dig up treasure that is further underground, that means you can visit previous dig sites and find new items, eventually finishing a digsite 100%
Finishing missions also gets you prestige which allows you to unlock new digsites.
This game is for a niche group of people as it's nothing more then a walking simulator with gorgeous graphics and treasure to dig up, but it get's stale quickly and I usually have some movie running on my second screen while playing this.
There also isn't a big variety to the treasure you find, expect to find a bottle cap 100 times over again instead of something great.
Every treasure has a description, usually it's a small history of the type of item you find.
Rare treasures will be displayed in you office, giving some form or feeling of progression you are making.

Now to the Warning part
The game will crash quite often, almost always when you finish up a digsite and return to the office.
Luckily the game saves itself shortly before so the treasure isn't lost, it's just a bit annoying.

However I experienced a game breaking bug on the map Oasis, one of the last ones.
The bug does not allow me to finish the game as making the pictures i need does not trigger the mission to complete.
This is a known bug as seen on the forum but the workaround posted there doesn't work.

To make matters worse the developer never responds to email
So if you need help getting the game to run or to continue when you find a game breaking bug like I do is not an option.
I send them an email twice and never gotten a reply, the second email I send after not hearing from them back after 10 days.
The second email was send 7 days ago at the moment I am making this review, plenty of time for them to respond.

TL:DR

Gorgeous graphics
Good amount of locations all over the world
Relaxing gameplay
Gameplay because stale really soon
Missions are pretty boring: Take picture here, run from here to here or dig something up here
Frequent crashes
Developers do not respond to support request

I would have recommended this game if the developers had shown a bit more effort into solving game breaking bugs.
If I was able to actually finish this game I would have given it a 6.5 out of 10.
But as it stands now I cannot finish the game and after almost 15 hours I cannot get a refund anymore

Can get repetitive as simulations can be but mostly the limited objects found . more variety in the imagery would have been nice. Excellent simulation concept though. Great graphics very realistic at times. Had fun and thats the main thing. Worth the money.

I love the concept, the Graphics look fine when i can get them to work, not sure if anyone else this issue but i find that my Graphics seem to reset often, the resolution drops to 1024, with low details,
the controls are clumsy, and weird when using the metal detector, not like using one in real life at all, I expected closer to real experience with that then what we got, I want to say it was a great but it fell short of my expectations for a game made in the last decade. that said, hope there is a Treasure Hunter 2 on the drawing board, because i really do like the concept and this game has a lot going for it.
I cannot recommend this title as a game to rush out and get, but if you want something to do and you can get it on sale, then sure, support the developers and enjoy the game, just keep in mind it is more a casual game than a gamers game.

If your idea of a treasure hunter is Indiana Jones or Lara Croft, then this game probably won't excite you. if, on the other hand, you can imagine an afternoon wandering around scenic locations using a metal detector to (hopefully) find treasure, then this is more likely your style.

I wasn't sure what to make of this game at first, as it seemed to be just using the metal detector, digging up treasure (or junk) and not much more. On the other hand, the two locations I could access were very pretty,, with appropriate background music and effects. The whole thing was quite calming.

Once I slowed down and looked into the missions, it gave me more direction - and helped me open up the other locations. It turns out there's more to do than just look for metal with your metal detector. There are photos to take, shortest routes to find and a lot of picturesque ground to be covered. You might even learn some history of the items you find.

There are a few glitches here and there, but none so far have been game breaking, and things might be better explained, but it's a game I keep pottering around in, even when the missions are all complete. It's a cheap way to get a bit of time off, I guess.

So, pretty scenery, lovely (but not overwhelming) music, the lure of treasure mixed with the disappointment of finding junk and a fairly solid game mechanic that doesn't require a rush, with a smattering of side goals to keep you busy. Overall this is a neat game and I'm very glad I tried it!

Honestly, I don't understand the poor reviews. This game hits all the things I enjoy. You walk around in beautiful locations, with really peaceful sound effects, searching for treasure with a metal detector. The metal detector sounds can be annoying, but you can easily turn it down because there's a little indicator in the corner that tells you how close you are to the treasure, which I really appreciate.

You have to identify the treasure you find by examining them and then you learn a bit of fun information about the things you find, which you can then sell to fund your travels to more interesting places. You can compete jobs as you search for treasure to make more money and increase your reputation as a treasure finder, which will get you access to new places as well and better tools. You also have an office that collects the special legendary treasures, and the interesting stuff you find along the way.

This is the type of game you would probably know if you would like simply by the concept. I'm not going to really write a review, but write some things I've noticed in the game that may or may not bother someone:

-It's not really accurate concerning metal detecting. Your metal detector works like a sonar ping, and it gets louder the closer you get, but the range is pretty far. You have a meter that fills up the closer you get to the item. So, this is more of an arcade metal detecting game.

-Some angles will give you a warning that you can't dig from that angle. This is annoying when you find something on a slope or close to an edge, you get use to it, but...

-Your metal detector moves oddly. It sort of acts like waving a bendy stick, so if you pass over the sweet spot that lets you dig, you might struggle to get it back on the sweet spot again.

-Some items have to be investigated to figure out what they are. This involves spraying it down (basically automatic), and then turning it all around until it's figured out. However, I haven't seen exactly what triggers something to be figured out, since it seems like I can spin something around and around and not have the progress bar move. Also, some items are obviously something like a nail, I don't see why I have to figure out a common nail or tent peg.

-You can clear out an area of discoverable items. This isn't a real problem, but in the beginning you might get a mission to find certain things, and you have already discovered everything possible with your current metal detector. There is an option to reset a map, but it isn't quite clear what it does before you do it.

-You have an office that acts like a home base. It really annoys me that there are display cases in it already showing the unique items you can find. I would find it more fulfilling if these items remained a mystery until I found them in game.
