Mine Down to the Lava

Mine Down to the Lava drops you into a shaft with a glowing drill and a pack ready to fill. Dig straight down through stone, crystal and deeper layers, grab glittering ore as you go, and ride back to the surface to cash out before your pack fills up.

Each trip to the surface lets you buy upgrades and push a little further, from the Stone Depths down toward the Magma gate and beyond. It is a simple loop of dig, sell and upgrade that keeps pulling you back for one more run.

You can play Mine Down to the Lava online for free, no download needed, on phone, tablet or computer.
