Seven unique endings for the brave digger to discover. Get creative with the nuke, collect all the fancy tools and write down your best jokes. What? Yes, you’ll need jokes. If you are able to unveil all of the endings.

Lava level and floors with special loot added! New loot can be found also on normal floors.



Competitive speed run mode added to find out who is the nation’s hardest worker! The run will have the exact same number of floors and the same loot for everybody, with all the tools available. Show us what a true worker of the nation can do!

DLC Release date, closed beta and more

We’ve launched a closed beta of Cave Digger: Riches, the first DLC of Cave Digger. The selected hard workers are breaking the game and we’re fixing what they leave behind. This, of course, also means that we now have a release date for the DLC.

Cave Digger: Riches will be released on 30th of August. Since the last update, we’ve come to a more detailed plan with what the features will be.
  • Multiple endings with Nuke. You gotta get creative to find out them all!
  • A glove that holds great powers within.
  • Keys… Hmm, I wonder where they’ll fit?
  • Competitive mode for the toughest miners. You’ll have an identical run with other player in this mode, to really see who’s the fastest and hardest miner.
  • Upgrades for each main tool. Mining will never be the same again.

Besides the new ways and things to dig, we’ve also tried to make the game more engaging, entertaining and imaginative. We think that Cave Digger is not just about digging, but also about experiencing surprising things, discovering easter eggs and so on.
