Frontier

A roguelike mining deck-builder. Dig deep. Score big. Chase the Mother Lode.

Break through layered claims, cash in ores, gems, fossils and relics, and stack game-breaking enhancements into runs that spiral gloriously out of control.

How it plays

Every claim is a grid of layered tiles. Dig them up, and the finds you unearth — ores, gems, fossils and relics — score as VALUE × MULT. Play action cards to bore, slide and survey. Spend your dust on joker-like ENHANCEMENTS and EQUIPMENT that make later runs snowball. Every depth ends in a boss claim with a nasty twist. Reach the Mother Lode at Depth 6 to win — then keep going endless.

⛏️

Dig the claim

Chip through a grid of layered dirt, stone and lava tiles to reveal what's buried underneath before your picks run out.

💎

Score the finds

Ores, gems, fossils and relics each carry a VALUE and a MULT. Line up the right finds and watch the score cascade.

🃏

Play action cards

Deep Bore, Score Dig, Column Slide, Survey Grid — a hand of cards that reshape the board and bank extra value.

🗿

Stack enhancements

Buy joker-like ENHANCEMENTS and EQUIPMENT in the shop. Combos compound into absurd, run-defining multipliers.

👹

Beat boss claims

Every depth caps off with a boss claim that bends the rules. Adapt your deck and dig, or the shaft caves in on you.

🧊

Turn the Cube

CUBE MODE renders the whole claim as a 3D Rubik's-style cube you rotate and mine from every face. Same dig, new dimension.
