About This Game

One small magic circle. A whole mine of chain reactions.

Laila's Arcane Quarry is a pixel-art incremental mining game about turning a humble witch's workshop into a growing magical business. Move your magic circle over the rocks, gather crystals, and bring home the materials for your next breakthrough.

Short runs. Lasting progress.

Mining runs start at 15 seconds. Pickaxes automatically strike the rocks inside your circle, leaving you to choose where to aim. Smelt your haul into essence and invest in mining power, range, and time. The field that once felt impossible becomes a satisfying shower of ore.

Build a cascade of magic

Combine 88 research nodes and 12 crystal staffs with lightning, dynamite, plasma, and fire. Later challenges unlock chain explosions, a mirrored magic circle, and piercing magic. Explore nine mines, from icy caverns and stormy veins to floating rocks and the Dragon Vein Depths.

Mine, craft, deliver, repeat

Turn materials into enchanted goods, fulfill orders, and earn gold and reputation. Develop your shop alongside your mining build, break through the Dragon Heart Rock, and continue into the Moonback Crystal Palace and the Great Crystal Furnace.
