Into the Slimy Mines is a roguelike tower defense. Working for Ironkilt Intergalactic Industries is not easy, especially when you crash your mining vessel and lose all of your crew on a slime infested moon!
Rescue your crew and return your ore filled cargo before the Boss hands over the Stout Hammer to a more competent dwarf. Buy cards and booster packs, find crazy combos and dig the path to squish those frackin’ slimes. Dig, build defend—and get off this B&*@!n Moon!
Dig
- Dig to Victory – Rescue your crew from 30 dig sites—six unique biomes, each with five increasingly difficult depths. Drag Dig cards to excavate new tunnels toward your missing crewmates. But be warned, these paths are also your enemy’s path! Eek!
- Groundbreaking Playstyles – There are three unique guilds to choose from: Anvil, Warhammer, and Pickaxe. Pick from six upgradable Drill Rigs and customize with up to 30 different add-ons to match your play style and the location’s hazards.
- Lore Dive – Dig deep into the story of Captain Firebeard and his intergalactic Dwarven crew by rescuing them from the pesky slimes and collecting up to 20 datapads. Say hi to the ship’s AI, F.O.R.G.E for us.
Build
- Weapons of Mass Construction – Why not collect more than just your crew along the way? Drills can unearth ore for bursts of money, lures distract your slimy foes and generators keep your whole rig running the deeper you delve.
- Build to Last – Upgrade your kit by placing another of the same card on top of them. Level 1 Cannon + Level 1 Cannon = Level 2 Cannon, the math checks out! With 10 Buildings and 26 turrets, there’s a whole arsenal to upgrade.
- The Meta You Know – Meta progression? You’ve got it. Stomping slimes will become more of a breeze with every descent into the mine, with the option of 17 Meta upgrades to use and improve.
Defend
- Slime After Slime – Defend your rig from the incoming waves of slimes. Blast them away with 26 different turrets each with three upgrade levels, or slow them down with displacers and blockades.
- Dwarf in Distress – Need a little extra help? There are 15 Gadget cards that can slow or blast groups of slimes and repair your buildings, mid-wave.
