About Idle Miner
When a game has the word "idle" in the title, you know what kind of experience you're in no matter how intense the setting may be. This game is a mining game but it's also a game where a lot happens when you're not watching it. Like any big business, eventually, you get to a point where you have people running all the main aspects of it and you're just observing to collect the earnings and then put them towards more things to help the operations. It can feel rewarding to come back to a nice sum and then spend it on all those things you've had your eye on for the business.

Idle Miner is a 2D mining game about making a successful mining business using only the mouse. The cursor is used to navigate the UI and game screen while the Left Mouse Button is used to click on various features. These features can allow you to spend your money to expand your business. Your goal is to earn enough money to explore deeper into the mines so that you can figure out what happened to your father.
You start the game with only one hard-working miner who you need to click on so that they'll go to work. They'll deposit what they mine and then you need to carry it all the way up the lift, to the conveyor belt, and into the truck for shipping. As you make more money, you can hire more people for the different areas to automatically run things for you. You can also upgrade the mine itself to be more fruitful. As you earn more money, you'll be able to upgrade all of your workers to make them faster and mine more ore. Once you earn enough, you'll be able to dig deeper into the mine.
