Stratus Games Announces "Gold Mine" Game Giveaway Contest

Oct. 19, 2010 - PRLog -- To commemorate the amazing rescue of the 33 Chilean miners, Stratus Games is giving away a free copy of Gold Mine. Gold Mine is a brand new tile-laying board game where players control miners that excavate a mine, collect gold, and battle each other to get rich. Here is what the reviewers are saying so far:

"This easy and fun to play tile game was a hit at our end of summer cookout and game day" - Richard Martin-Leep, Greater Games Industry Catalog

"A really fun family game with good strategy and luck combined" - Board to Death TV

Here is how contest participants can win a free copy:
1. Download the Gold Mine instructions
2. Choose a single word from the instructions
3. Post the word as a comment on the contest page

The winning word has been pre-selected from the Gold Mine instructions. The first person to guess the correct word will be the winner!

Since there are so many words to choose from, hints will be provided periodically on Facebook and Twitter (username stratusgames) to narrow down the results (e.g., form of speech, frequency of occurrence and page number).

The most obvious of hints will be posted on Friday, November 5 at 7 PM MST. The winner will be announced on Friday, November 5 at 8 PM MST.

Each participant may guess once per day. Any subsequent entries by the same participant will be ignored.

The prize will be shipped to anywhere in the world. If local laws prohibit such contests, participation is discouraged.

Good luck!
