SteamWorld Dig

Instant Buy - but keep in mind - in about 3 to 4 hours you are through. If it had doubble the length it would be one of my favourite games of the year!

Not being into platform style games, I have to say this one pulled me in from the start. It starts out quite simple as you mine for gems and minerals to upgrade your gear, but as you unlock more and more skills and abilities it really gets addictive. As other reviews have mentioned it's not a very long game, but you can either race to the finish and finish it in 4 hours, or you can actually explore for more resources and really flesh it out so you get to the more challenging end section with more upgrades. Nice casual experience definitely worth the price!

I'm inclined to say "10/10 would dig again" because the gameplay is addicting and it pretty much had me going until the end in only just one sitting. The digging, tool-upgrading is really satisfying and new elements are added to the gameplay at an excellent pace. The only problem is that the game is too short. I beat it in 4-5 hours, and while it was a very enjoyable experience, it could have easily used more content. After the final boss battle, I expected it to resume for a bit longer, but sadly, it didn't. Overall, it is an easy recommendation, and plus kudos for the Hungarian translation!

As others are saying, this game is very good and fun to play, very casual, which is good, but waaay too short. I finished it in 4 hours not rushing through anything and getting most of the upgrades.
