Shattermine Idle is an incremental mining game about breaking ores, building an automated workforce, and turning a handful of rocks into an absurdly profitable mining operation.
Start with a basic pickaxe and a few ore slots. Click to mine, earn gold, discover increasingly valuable resources, hire workers, and expand your operation as the numbers climb higher and higher.
As your mine grows, so does the way you play. Upgrade your mining power, improve your automatic mining speed, strengthen your workers, unlock new pickaxes and discover dozens of ores with increasingly ridiculous values.
Mining isn't limited to clicking. Unlock powerful abilities as you progress, from devastating strikes that smash groups of ores to ricocheting pickaxes, scorching beams and temporary boosts that send your production into overdrive.
Each ability can become even stronger through permanent upgrades as you progress deeper into the game.
When your current mine begins to slow down, reset your run to earn Shards .
Spend Shards on permanent upgrades that improve future runs, enhance abilities, strengthen automation and unlock new ways to progress. Each reset lets you push further and reach milestones faster than before.
Hire workers to mine alongside you and gradually automate more of your operation. Improve their power and speed, then let your mine continue doing the hard work while you focus on upgrades, abilities and progression.
Discover Geodes while mining and crack them open to unlock cosmetics for your workers, or maybe something extra. Build your collection and customise your mining crew as your operation grows.
Mine ores manually or let automatic mining do the work - Both active and idle play styles are encouraged!
