You Can't Drink Gold

Dig deep. Get rich. Stay alive.

Description

They say there's water at the bottom of this mine. Until you get there, every drop costs gold. An active incremental mining roguelite: dig through 70 layers, socket gems into your gear, and pay the water bill, because you can't drink gold.

Seventy layers of dirt and rock stand in the way, packed with gems, buried treasure, explosive surprises and six mysterious keys. Dig as deep as your tools can reach. The only limit is how hard the rock bites back.

Every five rounds the water bill arrives. It never gets cheaper and it does not negotiate. Pay up, or your run is over.

Features

  • You don't click to dig. Left-click for the shovel, right-click for the pickaxe. Tools swing on their own, at their own rhythm, wherever your cursor rests.
  • Watch what you uncover. Unearth gunpowder and it blows a crater in your face. Some rocks spit gold, some burn hot, some burst into a shower of nuggets.
  • Melt, socket and experiment. Between rounds, melt three matching gems into a better one, find new gear and socket gems to craft your build.
  • Two miners, one mine. Bring a friend: one run, one upgrade tree, one water bill. Just remember, everything costs twice as much.
