Sift & Shine

River prospecting

Sift & Shine is a cozy prospecting and life simulation game for PC. You leave a mountain home and settle beside a river, where you sift dirt and gravel for gold, gemstones, precious metals, ornamental stones, and ores. You work the pan by shaking it to separate valuable finds from the muck, then sell what you uncover to fund a new life on the riverbank.

The river’s contents expand as you discover new valuables. Finds include Quartz, Ruby, Emerald, Sapphire, Diamond, Gold, Silver, Platinum, and metal ores. The central task is to keep prospecting while deciding how to spend your earnings on equipment, property, and recurring expenses.
