In this puzzle adventure game, you take control of an adventurous explorer who roams through undiscovered islands in the early 1900's. Your character, Jonas, Is a middle aged male, struggling to make ends meet as a busking juggler on the mean streets of New York. unbeknownst to everyone else you know, this is just a cover for your real job: stealing ancient treasures and selling them to the highest bidder. In Undiscovered: puzzle Adventures you will travel between undiscovered islands, searching through ancient Mayan, Roman, Amazonian and even Egyptian ruins among many other scenic locations in your hunt for treasure.

While exploring these islands, be prepared to treat with any natives to ensure your safe passage, avoid them entirely, or if the worst should happen, fight them. Not only are their natives on the islands to worry about, there is also the local wildlife to be wary of: from monkeys to wild boars, you will have to make sure they don't impede your progress, be careful though, if roaming natives spot dead animals, they will begin searching the area.

After making your way through the wilderness and into a ruin, you will be challenged in varying difficulties to solve puzzles, starting out easy then progressively harder as you progress. Traps, moving platforms, mind bending frustration and more await you within, can you escape with your treasure while remaining alive? If you do and manage to get back to the streets of New York, you must find a dealer who will take your treasures from you for a previously agreed upon price. If you feel the danger was not worth the treasure gained, you may try to convince him to part with more money, but this may result in complete refusal to purchase the treasure or even hostility.

Be careful when you barter with people, you have a reputation to uphold. if you anger too many buyers or informants, you may end up with only the most desperate of people contacting you for the most meager of rewards. if this happens, you must work hard to find your way back into a sterling reputation.

Once you have amassed a wealth beyond compare you may elect to retire and win the game.
