Dust & Diamonds
Launches 4 November 2026 · PC
Story

You play as a young hero taking over the family mining business from your father. Your old man has finally retired, but instead of resting, he hangs out in the shop. He grumbles, gossips about customers, and sarcastically criticizes your every decision. Dust & Diamonds is a mining and colony management simulator created in Unreal Engine 5, featuring beautiful 2.5D graphics with a parallax system and a dynamic day and night cycle. ⛏️ Explore and Mine Beneath the surface of your base lies a procedurally generated, massive mine grid. Grab your pickaxe and head down. The deeper you go, the more valuable resources and minerals you will discover – but remember that the risk also increases with depth. Vertical exploration requires proper tools. Build wooden ladders and platforms to move freely through newly dug shafts and safely return to the surface with your loot. Impenetrable darkness...

Impenetrable darkness rules the mine. Light up the gloom by nailing classic, crafted torches to the walls... ...or enjoy the convenience provided by relics of the past.
