The task is to control where the pickaxe falls and what it's equipped with. Each type of block requires a specific approach: soil yields easily, stone demands force, and only a heavy pickaxe at top speed can break obsidian. The pickaxe accelerates as it falls freely, but the shaft adjusts by placing harder rocks in its path.
In Diggy, you'll find:
* 11 unique pickaxes with special abilities;
* a Workshop to enhance the edge, durability, weight, and reach;
* three slots for items like dynamite, repair kits, tillers, growth boosts, and more;
* mines with distinct rock types and rules;
* bosses, arena portals, and glowing chests;
* pets crafted from bones encased in amber;
* daily refreshes of tasks every 12 hours and 20 achievements to unlock;
* a yard where duplicates combine into rarer items.
Each round takes just a minute or two — then you're ready for the next one.
How to play
To begin, move the pickaxe to the left or right before throwing — this is your chance to decide where it will land. After that, it falls on its own.
During the flight:
• Click on an item at the bottom of the screen or press 1, 2, 3 to use a boost.
• Hold the boost to see its effect.
• The tiller gives you temporary control: use the arrow keys or the on-screen buttons.
• Press Esc or the gear icon to pause, accelerate time, or exit with your loot.
The run ends when the edge wears out or the pickaxe gets stuck permanently. All the ore you collect is yours — spend it in the Workshop and the Kit, then set off again.
