The Miners

The Miners is about leading a team of five miners on Morg, a small planet rich in raw materials. You dig deeper into its mines to find precious gems and other treasures, which the miners normally have to hand over to the owner of all the mines, known as The Mine.

The Mine announces a competition between mining teams. The winning team receives one of the planet’s richest mines and keeps the treasures it finds during the contest. To win, you compete against other teams, contend with hostile cave creatures and work through mines in wild, inaccessible locations. Competition rules allow you to use explosives, a mobile teleport and advanced mining tools.

The game has a campaign and a free-play mode across 20 maps. It includes a campaign editor and a map editor, and uses a half-open construction.
