About the Game

The Mines

Your friends dare you to go into an abandon mineshaft and you fall in deep. Your friends run to town to get help so you're left exploring. Leaving you trapped deep inside a forgotten mineshaft owned by Sale Co, you must navigate twisting tunnels, unstable caverns, and abandoned mining equipment while something forged by radiation lurks in the dark. Radiation from secret operations deep in the mines has shifted the wildlife into horrifying forms massive spiders, flaming dinosaurs, and other creatures that should never see the light of day. Your only chance at escaping is Silas, a mysterious creature you meet early in your adventure who seems to know more about the mines than he lets on.

But there’s another problem. 

Your pocket watch is ticking.

The mineshaft is becoming more unstable with every passing hour. You can here rockfalls rumble, supports crack, and you know, sooner or later, the entire mineshaft will collapse. If you want to make it out of this place, you’ll need to mine your way through blocked paths, outrun the creatures chasing you, and make every minute count.
