Depth Diggers

Dig. Rescue. Ascend.

A pixel-art incremental mining game. Dive down a shaft through four zones with a limited number of swings per expedition, rescue little robots that dig alongside you, and break every boss. Nothing ever resets.

Every swing counts. Nothing is ever lost.

Depth Diggers is built around short expeditions and permanent progress. You head down with a set number of swings, mine what you can, and come back up to spend it on upgrades that stay with you forever.

No resets, ever

No prestige and no restarts. Every expedition adds to your progress, and your upgrades are yours for good.

Swings, not seconds

An expedition is measured in swings. Clicking faster finishes sooner, but it never takes you deeper. Hold to dig once you unlock Cadence.

Bosses remember

Damage you deal to a boss stays between expeditions. Every trip down brings the next victory closer.

A crew of Pitbots

Rescue small mining robots from the rock. Each has a name and a trait, and they keep digging next to you even when you stop.

Going down · Four zones

Four layers between you and the Core

Each zone has its own rock, its own light and its own warden. Beat one and the shaft opens further down.

Zone 1

Rocky Surface

Ochre stone and pale quartz. Its boss, the Quartz Warden, hides a weak point in its wall.

Zone 2

Quartz Caverns

Glittering cyan caves. Break the Obsidian Warden's shards to crack its armour.

Zone 3

Obsidian Abyss

Black glass and violet glow. The Magma Warden sinks into lava and raises a shield.

Zone 4

Core of the Abyss

A chained wall with a great red eye. The final exam: weak points and shards together.
