A Game About Digging A Hole™

You have bought a house and decide to dig into its backyard. In this first-person game, the hole itself is your path underground and the reason to keep exploring.

Dig through soil and rock to collect valuable resources, then return to the surface to sell them. Spend the money on equipment upgrades, including a better shovel, more carrying capacity, a larger battery, and a jetpack.

As your gear improves, you can dig more efficiently and reach deeper underground. The game’s progression follows this cycle of digging, collecting, selling, and upgrading, with a mystery waiting beneath the yard.

Players who enjoy the game often describe digging and gradually improving their gear as satisfying, relaxing, and easy to get absorbed in. The simple resource-selling loop also appeals to players looking for a low-pressure activity. Common criticisms include the short runtime and limited variety, while some reviewers find the late-game shift into stealth and horror jarring.
