An arcade-style, Flash-based mining game set in Martian soil. Navigate hazards including hidden gas pockets, earthquakes, and other surprises. Use the rewards from your work to purchase powerful upgrades for your Mining Pod. Compare high scores with friends to determine the true champion, then take on more difficult gameplay modes after completing the game.

You arrive on Mars penniless, armed only with the minimum digging equipment needed to make a living. Gather resources to buy upgrades and dig deeper, but survive fuel shortages, heat, and other dangers. More valuable resources await below, along with greater risks.
