I first played this on PS4 a while back and thought it was a cool & simple mining game, but little did I know this was just the tip of the SteamWorld series' iceberg

SteamWorld Dig has a cute steampunk art style that gives the game a lot of its charm and makes it feel unique. The presentation fits the game really well, and the overall atmosphere is enjoyable. The gameplay is where the game really shines. It is genuinely fun and kept me hooked throughout my playthrough. The progression constantly gives you a reason to keep moving forward, whether it is discovering new areas, unlocking upgrades, or gaining new abilities. There is always something to work toward, which keeps the game from feeling repetitive. The game also has a surprisingly large amount of mechanics and gives you multiple ways to approach different situations, especially when it comes to mining and fighting. Mining in particular has more strategy to it than you might initially expect. If you dig everything in sight, you can end up struggling to make it back to the surface. On the other hand, digging in the wrong place can make it difficult to reach valuable loot. This makes you think about how you approach each area instead of simply digging wherever you want. The game is also not very difficult. Once you understand how everything works, you can anticipate most situations pretty easily. There are still a few things that can catch you off guard, but overall, I would consider this a very casual experience. One of my few complaints is the wall jumping. It can feel a bit clunky because of the slight delay before you can jump again after touching a wall. It is not a huge issue, but it can make movement feel less responsive than I would like. The story is probably the weakest part of the game. It is fairly generic and relies on some ideas that have been used many times before. The final boss dialogue in particular felt especially predictable. The ending also intentionally leaves the story unresolved. This was because the developers wanted to make a second game to continue the story, which they eventually did. As for the length, I think the game strikes a good balance. It is not so short that it feels unfinished, but it also does not overstay its welcome. The constant introduction of new areas, upgrades, abilities, and mechanics helps keep the experience feeling fresh from beginning to end. Overall, SteamWorld Dig is a great casual game. It has a charming art style, enjoyable gameplay, satisfying progression, and enough variety to keep you hooked without becoming overwhelming. The story and some of the movement could have been better, but those issues did not take away from how enjoyable the overall experience was. Definitely gets my stamp of approval.

Man, I had a GREAT time with this game. Kind of like a laid back Metroidvania, with the main gameplay loop of collecting ores & then selling them to upgrade Rusty (your character). There isn't really too much complicated combat, more focused on enemies surprising you or suicide bombing you. I especially loved the art style & NPC characters that brought a fun vibe to the game that I enjoyed from start to finish. Easily able to finish in a day or weekend, depending on how fast or slow you want to play it. 8.5 / 10
