Overview

A world after the blast: nothing but ruins and scorched earth on the surface, and everything worth having buried far below it. You take the controls of a drilling rig and head straight down, to where diamonds and fuel tanks are locked in the rock. The drill never stops on its own. Your job is to steer it through the layers, pick up what you can and stay clear of the dynamite: one touch and the run is over. The deeper you go, the higher your score. Diamonds and fuel are not lost when you die — they carry over between runs, and you can spend them before the next descent. Nuclear Fuel drops you a hundred rows down in an instant, the Plasma Shield swallows one blast.

Game instructions

There is only one control: move your finger or the cursor left and right. The drill descends on its own, you decide where it goes. The yellow frame marks the column it is heading for — the drill shifts at most one column per row, so plan your turns early. Collect fuel canisters and diamonds. These are two separate currencies and they carry over between runs. Avoid the dynamite. Hitting it ends the run instantly, unless your shield is up. Before a run you can buy boosters, one or both at once. Nuclear Fuel costs canisters and drives the drill a hundred rows down, straight through everything in the way. The Plasma Shield costs diamonds and absorbs one explosion. Your score grows with every row you pass, so the goal is simple: get as deep as you can. When you die you get a few seconds to continue the run from the same spot.
