Game as Buried Treasure

What if after following treasure map through dangerous wilderness or after solving complex riddle the party is presented not with chests overfilled with gold and gems, but this...




A game, created and buried a thousand years ago.  Will they play it? What will the outcome mean? Is it valuable to a collector?  Or, perhaps priceless in that it is a clue to a greater mystery?

Idea from real life game designer Jason Rohrer who built and buried a game meant to be played 2000 years from now.
