Keep On Mining! is an incremental game where the main goal is to gather stones and process them into valuable resources. By moving the cursor over the stones, they are mined automatically. Any stone within the mining zone generates pickaxes that work without additional input, steadily breaking down resources while the player focuses on upgrades and crafting. The loop of mining, refining, and improving tools drives progression throughout the game.
Gathering And Refining
Mined stones yield ores that can be smelted into ingots. There are different types of stones to collect, each producing specific materials. As the player unlocks new areas, more stone varieties become available, allowing for a broader range of resources. The mining zone operates continuously, and the more efficient the setup, the faster resources are gathered. Managing these materials effectively is key to advancing through the stages of the game.
Upgrades And Crafting Tools
Collected ingots can be used to unlock improvements in the skill tree. These upgrades permanently enhance mining efficiency, increase damage to stones, and unlock the ability to mine tougher materials. In addition, players can craft new pickaxes from different materials, with each tier offering better performance than the previous one.
The core gameplay loop involves:
Mining stones to gather ores
Smelting ores into ingots
Spending ingots on permanent upgrades
Crafting improved pickaxes
Using stronger tools to access new stone types
This structure ensures that progress feels steady as tools improve and new mechanics unlock.
Talents And Specialization
Each time the player levels up, a talent point is earned. This point can be spent to reveal three random talent cards, from which one is chosen. Selecting a talent increases its level and also raises the HP of stones, adding a layer of progression balance. Choosing the right talents can significantly impact the speed of mining and the efficiency of resource collection, allowing for more specialized playstyles.
Automation And The Mine
Once unlocked, the mine provides fully automated stone collection. It works continuously in the background, instantly creating ingots without player action. This automation system allows for passive progress, ensuring that resources accumulate even when not actively mining. Combined with skill upgrades, crafted pickaxes, and talent selections, the mine becomes a powerful tool for long‑term progression in Keep On Mining!.
