TAP / CLICK
Tap a spot next to your pod to drill one step. Hold and drag to keep drilling in that direction.
CARGO
Mined minerals fill your CARGO hold, they are NOT cash yet! When it's full, climb back to the surface - cargo auto-sells there. Tap the SELL button to auto-climb.
TIME
Bank the CASH GOAL before the timer hits zero. 10 levels take you from topsoil to the STARFORGE CORE! Deeper minerals = worth more. Cash resets every level - upgrades are forever.
COMBO
Mine gems back-to-back within 4 seconds to build a COMBO x2, x3... worth up to x4 cash!
GOOD STUFF
Gems, ores, relics, crowns, starshards = cash. Repair kits fix your hull, time crystals add seconds, mystery orbs are a gamble.
BAD STUFF
Gas explodes, lava burns, acid melts, barrels are radioactive, skulls and mimics steal cash, hex jars and void grasps drain time. Boulders and hard rock waste your time.
EVENTS
Every level rolls a random event: gem rushes, blackouts, quakes, void surges and more. 11 events total!
TNT
Tap the TNT button, then tap a tile to blast a 3x3 area. Minerals caught in the blast are collected!
SHOP
Between levels, spend cash on 9 upgrades: drill speed, cargo bay, hull, magnet, lamp, TNT, shield, luck and time. Unspent cash is lost on descend - spend it!
AUTO-SAVE
Your run saves itself automatically - pause, quit or even close the tab and your dig is safe. Hit RESUME on the title screen to continue exactly where you left off - world, cargo, upgrades and all!
ENDLESS
Beat level 10 to unlock ENDLESS MODE: infinite generated depths that keep getting harder. How deep can you go?
