Cinderdelve

Digging through the mountain

Cinderdelve is a pixel-art digging game for PC in which you hire dwarves to mine an eleven-level mountain and reach the Tyrant at its base. Each block mined gives gold, which you spend on upgrades and more dwarves. A crew can grow from a handful to hundreds, all breaking rock at once.

You can leave the crew to dig on its own or issue Dig, Avoid and Fight orders. Each level is a fixed 1,400-by-1,400-block mountain made from rock that gets harder with depth. To descend, you must take the goal buried at the bottom and mine 85% of the level.
