Two Point Museum: Fantasy Finds Review

Top-tier Loot Worth Grinding For

Image

Nobody does simulation and management quite like Two Point Studios. There’s a lighthearted, comedic charm to everything they’ve made so far—games where you’re just as likely to laugh out loud as you are to get completely lost in the micromanagement, whether you’re running a hospital, a campus, or now, your very own dream museum.

But that’s all old news. Two Point Museum launched back in March and has already proven itself to be a thoroughly fun and endearing ride, so long as you can handle the organized chaos that comes with management. This review’s more focused on its first and latest DLC, Fantasy Finds, and without jumping straight to the boss at the end of the dungeon, it’s a solid loot drop at a budget price. Definitely not one you’ll regret grinding for, but let’s dig through the pile and see what each of the new finds have to offer your growing collection of exhibits.

Yeah, We’re Doing D&D in Two Point Museum Now

Image

The first new mechanic the Fantasy Finds DLC calls our adventure—er, our attention to—is the introduction of Fantasy Experts. These specialists can be hired just like the regular Experts from the base game, but they come dressed in far more fantastical attire and bring something entirely new to the table: Stats and Classes, modeled after classic RPG ability scores like Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and the rest of the usual suspects.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: what do RPG stats have to do with museum curation and exhibit acquisition? But really, isn’t the act of tracking down ancient relics and rare artifacts just another kind of adventure? In the base game, archaeologists and paleontologists were already halfway to being adventurers with PhDs—Fantasy Finds just takes that idea and runs with it.

Sure, their monsters are mostly skeletons, and their treasures come with fewer cursed rubies and more fragile labels, but the core idea holds. That’s where Stats come in. Each Fantasy Expert is assigned a Class, and with it, a unique stat spread that follows tried-and-true RPG archetypes—Barbarians favor Strength, Wizards lean into Intelligence, and so on.
Image

These stats really come into play out in the field, especially with the new events that pop up on the DLC’s exclusive expedition map, Scorched Earth—more on that in a bit. Whether your party passes or fails certain encounters often comes down to their stat distribution. A high score might unlock better outcomes or sidestep bad events entirely, while a lack of the right abilities could spell trouble for your loot run. Some roadblocks—like, say, a literal Red Dragon (because of course there’s a dragon)—even require specific stats across your team to get past, opening up new points of interest in the process.

These new Experts genuinely feel like a classic adventuring party when they’re out exploring, except instead of returning to town to gear up, they’re bringing back priceless relics to put on display. And speaking of what they bring back, it’s about time we dug into the new exhibits this DLC has to offer—because for all the D&D-adjacent flavor we’ve talked about so far, the “fantasy” in Fantasy Finds shows a surprising amount of range when it comes to the actual exhibits.

Come See the Legendary Sword in the Stone at Your Local Museum

Image

No museum’s complete without an exhibit—that’s just basic curation—but the 40 new pieces this DLC brings in are something else entirely. You might expect your definitely-not-Vox-Machina-style adventuring party to return with the usual suspects: coffers overflowing with gold and gems, the odd legendary weapon, maybe a magical trinket or two. And sure, sometimes they do. But just as often, they come back with relics pulled straight from storybooks, bones of long-defeated beasts, or curious contraptions crafted by fantasy races.

The first thing I ever unearthed wasn’t even something your average adventurer would call loot—it was an unfinished marble statue of a lion, the kind you’d expect to find in a dungeon corridor, probably near the remains of someone who looked at it funny. Then came the glittering coffer, just as expected, followed shortly after by the sword in the stone. I wasn’t about to become the new king of England, but for the price of a museum ticket, now everyone else can take their shot.
Image

Aside from their appearance, these new exhibits don’t really introduce any major mechanical changes that set them apart from those in the base game. They mostly just look great and fit the new theme—kind of like how every new Sims 4 expansion adds a different couch or bench that, in the end, functions the same as the last one.

There is a small exception, though. Some of the new exhibits can actually be equipped by your staff, like the winged sandals my expedition party once brought back. When worn, these items stop working as exhibits and won’t earn you any money—turns out an empty display case doesn’t exactly spark the imagination—but they do grant some pretty hefty buffs. Those sandals alone gave my security guard the speed of Hermes. Thieves, consider yourselves warned.

Potions and Potion Recipes Across Scorched Earth

Image

Now, moving along to what else the game has to offer—let’s talk maps. Every adventuring party carries one, whether or not they actually know how to read it. And no proper fantasy realm is complete without its own, which brings us to Fantasy Finds’ new domain: Scorched Earth. This blazing landscape introduces a fresh mechanic in the form of Potions, Potionmaking, and Potion Recipes.

Much like how the base game features a workshop that requires trained staff to operate, Fantasy Finds lets you brew potions for stat boosts and expedition perks using the same setup.
Image

The key difference this time is that it's your Fantasy Experts, not the janitors, who need the training. Potions function as craftable consumables you can prep your expedition teams with before sending them out, giving them the edge they need to tackle tougher encounters or explore areas that would otherwise be out of reach.

Push far enough into Scorched Earth and you’ll unlock new potion recipes to experiment with—so make sure your Fantasy Experts are well-fed, well-trained, and maybe a little expendable. You’ve now got two good reasons to keep sending them into danger.

Deck Your Hall of Heroes with Unique Fantasy Decor

Rounding out Fantasy Finds is a whole kingdom’s worth of fantastical décor, wallpaper, and flooring—perfect for filling out any fantasy wing with ancient pottery, tavern walls, heraldic banners, and enough barrels to make you suspicious that at least one of them’s a mimic.

What’s impressive is how well these decorations tie everything together—not just visually, but mechanically too, since exhibit cohesion is actually a key part of the game’s scoring system. It’s a fun blend of classic RPG visuals and storybook flair, from gabled rooftops and arched brick walls to vibrant bazaar textiles and, naturally, heaps of dungeon loot. There are even a few new interactive exhibits to keep the kids entertained, so once you’ve unlocked everything, you’ll be just as immersed in the fantasy as your museum guests.

Legendary Loot for Cheap

Image

Overall, Fantasy Finds is an impressive first loot drop for Two Point Museum—and a surprisingly fitting one at that. The base game already offers a wide, creative range of museum themes to choose from, and this fully fantasy-based expansion adds just enough new mechanics to feel fresh without shaking up the core experience. It’s a flavorful cherry on top of an already solid game.

Best of all, despite the dragon’s hoard of new decorations and exhibits to deck out your fantasy wing, it won’t cost you a hoard of your own to get. At just $7.99, it’s a modest price for a whole lot of charm.
Image

You’re in for one hell of a time grinding out everything you need to build your very own Hall of Heroes. With Fantasy Finds, Two Point Studios rolled a Natural 20 on its first DLC—and if this is the direction they’re going, I can’t wait to see what they come up with next. Personally, I’ve got my fingers crossed for something Wild West-themed, but knowing who made this game, I’m more likely to get pleasantly surprised again.
