About the Game

Collect, cut open, and discover what's hidden inside the stones as you explore new areas, unlock new tools, and build your ultimate collection. Unlock new biomes, improve your garage, and chase increasingly rare finds - the deeper into the game you get, the better the rocks.

Explore rocky fields, meadows, and canyon formations across multiple worlds. Each location has its own set of rocks to find - from humble Quartz to rare, glowing Legendaries. Some rocks are common. Some are shiny. Some you'll only ever find once. Back in your garage, every rock goes on a journey. Run it through the slicer, polish it in the grinder, and watch something ordinary become extraordinary.

Your garage is your home base. Upgrade your machines, unlock new processing tiers, and decorate the space your way - walls, floors, ceilings or even a car. It's yours!

Display your rarest finds on shelves and showcases. Track your stats and chase achievements! Every collection tells a story - this one is yours.
