A digging adventure in a Steam-powered Frontier…

SteamWorld Dig is an action-adventure game that mixes exploration, puzzle-solving, and mining mechanics.

As you dig through the earth, you’ll gather resources like ores and gems, which can be used to upgrade your abilities and tools to help you go faster and deeper...

But don’t think it’ll be that easy! As you descend into the depths, you’ll encounter a variety of enemies, environmental hazards and puzzles that will put you and your trusty pick-axe to the test.
