Delightful little game.

I got this game in an Indie Piñata, and I was pleasantly surprised by it. the best way to describe it would be a metroidvania with some Terraria elements thrown in for good measure. Once you get the hang of the of the way it handles mining (digging down is infinitely easier than digging up) it is a relaxing activity. Combat is a little wonky, you never have a one-hit weapon. Even when back tracking through the starting area your are still swinging away with your pickaxe. But combat is fairly minor to wonderful platforming that this game has to offer. I did beat it in about six hours, your mileage may vary, Very enjoyable.

Fun and Addictive

Steamworld Dig is fun, addictive and charming. The play controls and mechanics are perfect and fun. It is a MetroidVania game where you gain some abilities and have to back track to different levels to access new areas with those new abilities. While this game does that it is really a MetroidVania-lite. For example you will gain new abilities to access new areas, but they are small areas that are part of a level and not a whole new level. Also there are not a lot of areas to find. The digging for ore to sell at the store for money to buy new upgrades is fun and addicting. I really enjoyed digging for ore to discover what I would get. There are some secret places to find ore and orbs, too. The story, characters, graphics and music are charming and go together well. I never got tired of it at all. I wanted more, but the game is short to medium length depending how much of the game you want to complete. Also there aren't many type of enemies and the last boss is the only boss in the game. And that is why I took a star off the rating. I wish the game was longer with more new areas to discover with bosses and new enemies or have expansion packs to add those features. It seems that this may not happen since the developers are focused on their new game, Steamworld Heist. Overall it was a great and enjoyable experience to play. I recommend that fans of this genre should play this game if you don't mind the short length.

Great Time Waster and Chill Game

This game doesnt describe itself as one but it is a good game to play when you just wanna relax and not scream your head off. You just pick up the Controller and you dig in a never ending mine (Not sure if it is neverending so I could be wrong about that but it seems like it may be.) Yeah you will die in this game but I never got frustrated in it, I just laughed and I got right back into that mine. Pick this game up now its worth full price on here. I know it also has a PS Vita port and this is a perfect game for that Platforme becasue it is a game I would want to play on the go.

An Interesting Mix

You've probably heard that this is a mix of Metroid and Dig Dug, and while the Metroid elements are greatly overstated, they do exist, and there's a bit more to it than just that. You're digging your way down a shaft, and as you do, ground dug and enemies killed remain that way in the main shaft. On your journey to the bottom, you'll be looking for materials, which you sell on the surface for money, which, aside from being currency, also acts as your experience; the more you bring in total, the more the town develops, and the more upgrades you can buy. It's a rewarding system that prioritizes making the right choices, but at the end of the day, you will be able to buy every upgrade with plenty to spare. You have a lantern that gradually consumes fuel, as a sort of timer, but if it runs out, you just can't see as well, so minerals will be harder to find; you're never left blind or killed from your lantern going out. The game's deceptively tricky; you have to be careful how you dig in order to make sure you can get back up to the surface easily. There's a minimap that points out landmarks, such as caves and teleporters to help you, as well, and it will also point you in the direction of your next main objective. As for the rest, the music, story, and graphics are all decent, but nothing too outstanding. The theme is both Wild West and Steampunk, which is an unusual mix, and it works well enough. The different minerals that you find look neat, and it's fun seeing which you'll dig up next. Perhaps more importantly, the visuals do a good job of telling you what you're looking at, so you're never just banging on random blocks, hoping that something will happen. It's a pretty short adventure, so if any of this sounds appealing, it's certainly worth giving a try.
