In a postwar dieselpunk world, you pilot a colossal mining mech on an expedition into Earth's depths, seeking answers and a way to avert future conflict.
Drill through rock to collect minerals, then return to the surface to sell them. Each descent brings the lure of richer finds, but fuel, storage, hull damage, temperature, falling rocks, and earthquakes can put an expedition at risk.
Spend your earnings to upgrade individual mech systems and restore your base, unlocking stronger equipment and abilities for deeper exploration. Distinct underground locations introduce new conditions and threats, while artifacts and traces of an earlier expedition reveal more about the world; choices can lead to different endings.
In the supplied reviews, players often enjoy the satisfying dig, collect, sell, and upgrade loop, especially as mech improvements make deeper expeditions possible. Nostalgia for Motherload comes up frequently, alongside praise for the varied underground regions and the story and secrets that give players reasons to keep exploring. Some reviewers find the loop repetitive or the controls frustrating, so the positive response is not universal.
