Fun indie game with interesting blend between survival, and base building. The building is on rails meaning you select things, and choose upgrades. Its not a game were you can place things were you want. The digging is fun with interesting things to discover. The content is currently short, but inline with the price tag. 10/10 You can piss on a Cybertruck.

Very addictive. 10 hours in and ive evolved into a cave dwelling goblin. Pretty sure im close to the ending unless the game has already ended and im just refusing to leave. Won over 2500$ on the slot machine? Nice. Now quickly pick up all those 1$ bills before your PC blows up.

what an absolute gem of a game. It is exactly what it says it is. You dig, shoot zombies and repeat. What i was not prepared for is the sound experience with mines, bombs etc going off. How well the storms are betrayed and the fun of digging. Wish it was longer though, i could have finished it in 3-4 hours with my playstyle. Ended up digging around trying to find other hidden secrets for an additional 4 hours. Grand recipe for a game. Hope to see more from this developer. Multiplayer would make this even better

This game is really, really good. As casual games go this is about as good as its gets, it has a nice progressive gameplay loop, its got great graphics with consistent art direction unlike alot of indie asset flips you see now. Its fun, it has a bit of mystery to it and I whole heartedly recommend it to just chill out on. Not to mention its stability, no crashes, minor negligible bugs and hours of fun, its super reasonably priced aswell for how much effort has gone into it. Let your dog get abducted at least once, its worth it when you get him back :P
