About This Game

A tyrant bled the kingdom dry until the only way to stop him was to bury his entire castle underground. Now a top-hatted Lord has hired you to clear it out, room by room, and bring him the king's crown. He'll pay you "like a king": one penny for every block of dirt.

They say the tyrant's servants turned into monsters to survive the curse. Surely those are just myths.

Dig, spend, come back stronger


Every step, every shovelful and every swing costs energy. When it runs out, you pass out and wake up back at camp. But the castle remembers: the dirt you cleared, the monsters you beat and the loot you grabbed all stay that way on your next expedition. Every run takes you a little deeper.

Turn-based, without the waiting


You move on a grid and every action is an instant turn: you act, then they act. No rush and no reflexes needed, but think about every step, because enemy hits drain your energy too.

  • A buried castle with 7 floors and more than 60 rooms: courtyards, cellars, crypts, towers and an abyss, linked by keys, levers, gates, holes and secret walls.

  • 40+ monsters, each with its own trick: skeletons that rebuild themselves, mimics, ghosts that only move when you're not looking, chess knights, toads that drag you in with their tongue, regenerating trolls...

  • Bosses with their own rules: a dragon behind its bars, a king of the chessboard, a rival digger, a mole man and many more.

  • A tool for every problem: shovel, pickaxe, sword, bow, drill, demolition hammer and bombs.

  • A permanent upgrade tree with 40+ nodes paid for in diamonds: resting, sprinting, critical hits, gold veins, bigger bombs...

  • Traps and contraptions: spikes, conveyor belts, explosive barrels, teleporters, crumbling floors, fire bars, ice and pressure plates.

  • A merchant and an upgrade master who settle in your camp... if you give them a reason to stay.
