How it feels

You descend into a procedurally generated Mars cavern, digging quietly through dark corridors while uncovering story fragments and fending off strange creatures.

What players say

Players are split on this mining platformer. Long-time mobile fans are often let down by the PC version's bugs, wonky controls, and lack of auto-save. Some still enjoy the loop of digging and upgrading, but others call the game incomplete and too slow.
