DigDig ZakuZaku

A game where you dig through the ground, collect ores, and earn money. Keep digging steadily, earn little by little, upgrade your gear, and aim to escape from the mine. Dig deep, mine tons of ores, and perhaps freedom awaits you at the very bottom.

About the Game

Story

The protagonist has fallen into debt and is forced to work under harsh conditions in a mine.
Dig deeper and deeper toward the bottom to break free from this unreasonable life of labor!

Gameplay

As you dig through the ground, you’ll unearth a variety of ores.
Sell the ores you collect to earn money, upgrade your battery and shovel, and keep digging endlessly.
Some rocks are too tough for your shovel—use dynamite to blast your way through!

Be careful about your battery consumption.
Without power, your life in the depths will come to an end.

Playtime

Expect around 0.5 to 3 hours to reach the ending.
