In Retro Relics, you follow in the footsteps of your late Grandpa, a passionate metal detectorist. Explore nature and search for various relics with your metal detector. Roam freely with no time limits - detect, dig, help others find their lost belongings, and complete your coin and relics collection!

You can find relics from all eras (from bronze age to modern) with the help of your metal detector: coins, buttons, buckles, jewellery, military, religious relics and many more!

Uncover the mysteries of ancient ruins, explore lush forests, dusty fields and relax on a treasure hunt at the beach! Many animals can be spotted on your adventures.


Go on numerous search missions for the local people in your town, including a sassy old lady at her villa, a slightly confused hunter and many more interesting characters.

Collect more than 150 different relics from various eras and rarities.
Decorate your personal museum and display your rarest and prettiest finds:


People don't only lose treasures - help nature by picking up trash and watch animals come back to their former habitats:

At your cozy home you can sell artifacts, accept new missions via email, manage your collection and upgrade your gear.

Retro Relic's Demo just received a new major update!
Thank you everybody who downloaded and played Retro Relics during Steam Next Festival October Edition! I got so much new feedback - good and bad, listened carefully and can proudly announce that many of your requested features and changes are already implemented. I can say, Retro Relics has never been in a better state and is on the final sprint before releasing end of the year.
What can you expect from the new demo version?
Running / Sprinting has been overhauled. As wished, the running speed is much faster now. I also (finally) added a custom sprinting animation :) no more power walking!
[/*]People had trouble to locate the exact spot to dig, so I added a little sparkle effect that fades away after a few seconds at the spot where the relic is hidden
[/*]I added a visual glow to the pinpointer during the digging mini game, so now you can play without sounds if you want to listen to your own music or a podcast.
[/*]New feature added to the demo: You can now purchase upgrades for the metal detector:
[olist]Relic Radar: After purchase available on tool slot 4. Use it to long range scan for relics within a bigger radius (also triggers the sparkle effect)
[/*]Trash Filter: Unlocks a new second detector sound if the relic is from the trash category. You can decide to skip this signal or dig it (if you like trash :D)
[/*][/olist][/*]Handling containers with controllers is now easier: You can toggle through the containers by pressing LB or RB
[/*]Graphical overhaul of the tool icons
[/*]Fixed several bugs, crashes, glitches and bad design choices.
