About This Game

Welcome to GOBLIN MINERS — where trust is worth more than gold!

GOBLIN MINERS is a multiplayer social deduction and tactical strategy game for 4-16 players. Build tunnels to reach the gold, but beware — traitors hide among you!

🎭 HIDDEN ROLES — NOBODY KNOWS WHO YOU ARE

At the start of each game, you secretly receive a role:

• Goblins — honest miners working to build a path to the exit, find gold, and share the treasure among the team

• Saboteurs — cunning traitors sabotaging the operation and destroying team plans from within

• Neutrals — mysterious characters with unique objectives, playing by their own rules

Roles are hidden from all players. Do you trust the person sitting next to you? Every action can reveal the truth... or deepen the deception.

🛠️ TACTICAL STRATEGY — EVERY MOVE MATTERS

Use blueprints and items from your hand to influence the game:

• Path blueprints create tunnels from the starting point to the gold vein — but not all paths lead to the goal

• Action items break opponents' tools, block moves, reveal secrets, or change the course of the game

• Strategic decisions — place blueprints wisely, helping allies or secretly sabotaging enemies

Each placed blueprint shifts the balance of power on the field. One wrong move — and everyone will know who you really are!

🔍 SOCIAL DEDUCTION — READ PLAYER BEHAVIOR

Victory depends not only on correct blueprint placement but also on reading people:

• Analyze the actions of other players: who's building dead-end paths? Who constantly disrupts progress?

• Communicate via built-in chat — make accusations, defend yourself, and seek allies

• Form temporary alliances — but remember, anyone can be a traitor

• Bluff and manipulate — sometimes the best strategy is pretending to be an ally and backstabbing later

Trust no one until the round ends! Even your best friend might be a traitor.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game uses AI-generated artwork for character designs, card illustrations,
and visual assets. As a solo indie developer, I used AI tools to create base
artwork, which was then manually refined and edited by hand. All AI-generated
content was created during pre-production and does not generate new content
in real-time during gameplay.
