About Hold the Mine
Hold the Mine is about exploring a long-forgotten mine by day and defending it from waves of monsters by night. You guide a dwarf on a limited number of expeditions each day, mining several blocks in a row as you explore. Plan routes through the mine, but avoid venturing too far into unknown areas where dangers may be waiting.
Build and defend
Use gathered resources to construct buildings with unique effects. You can discover blueprints and combine buildings into synergies that improve your progress and defense as the mine grows deeper. Some buildings also let you use battle-changing powers during the nightly attacks.
At night, your heroes defend the gate against monsters sent by the cursed tower. Use the buildings’ powers carefully to help hold back the army and stop the mine’s door from being blown up.
Heroes and discoveries
Free heroes trapped in the mine and strengthen them with mysterious runes and exotic fruits found along the way. Unlock their abilities and upgrade their stats to help them protect the gate. The game includes 12 heroes with over 50 abilities to unlock, along with more than 20 types of blocks to discover.
Buildings and relics
The mine contains over 75 buildings and relics, each with its own effects and powers.
