Jo & Rubi: Archaeology at the Harbor invites children ages 4 and up on an interactive journey of discovery into the world of archaeology. It all begins with a mysterious coin found in Grandpa’s garden, which leads Jo and Rubi to an excavation site at the harbor. There, many tricky puzzles and hidden artifacts are waiting to be discovered.
Explore archaeology—without distractions or ads
In a familiar setting, children will gradually learn the mechanics of the game—and how a real excavation works: digging up, cleaning, and examining artifacts, solving puzzles, and gaining deeper knowledge through clever deduction. Together with Jo and Rubi, children will go on a treasure hunt, meet new friends, and even visit a museum boat. At the same time, there’s always plenty of room to explore the surroundings on their own, interact with them, and help shape the world of Jo & Rubi.
What your child will discover with Jo & Rubi:
— Hands-on archaeology: Dig for artifacts yourself, clean them, and examine your discoveries.
— Real history: Learn how professionals recover artifacts and what the legacies of our ancestors tell us.
— Tricky puzzles: Solve a variety of challenges and help the people and animals you encounter.
— Colorful game world: Explore the harbor and many other locations in a bright, lovingly illustrated setting.
— Room for creativity: Draw, decorate, and leave your own mark on the world of Jo and Rubi.
