You Know The Drill

You pilot a drill through underground mines, breaking through terrain to collect ores and other resources. Each mine gives you new ground to work through as you push farther below the surface.

Use what you collect to buy upgrades that improve the drill and its mining efficiency. The incremental loop builds from short, modest digs into faster runs, with upgrades including special tools such as drones, lasers, and rockets.

Progress through the campaign’s mines and upgrade tree, with drilled passages remaining open between runs. Completing the campaign unlocks Rush Mode, a shorter, faster version of the experience.

Reviewers often enjoy the relaxed, straightforward mining loop and the feeling of building a weak drill into a much more capable machine. The ore-breaking feedback and steady upgrades are recurring draws, and some appreciate that the game wraps up in a few hours. Others find the loop repetitive or the later progression too grindy, and several mention that effects can make the drill hard to see.
