Pod Digger

SIGNAL BELOW

Six people are waiting deep under the seabed. The submarine Nautilus went silent after a seaquake, but its beacon still pings. Pilot the Pod down and find them.

The research ship Meridian lowers the Pod, an orange digging drone, into a bright blue sea.

Dig down, bring it home, dig deeper

Pilot the Pod, a digging drone, down from the research ship Meridian. Cut through sand, chalk and glassy rock, dig up iron, silver, gold and rarer treasures, and bring them home to sell.

Fit a better saw, a stronger shell, a bigger battery and brighter lamps, and dig deeper with every dive.

  • Smooth one-thumb controls, made for phones.
  • Six depth zones, from the Sunny Shallows to the Ember Core.
  • A sound for every rock, and music that follows you down.
  • Lucky finds, log capsules from the Nautilus, and surprises in the deep.
  • Normal mode, where the Meridian always brings the Pod home, and Permadeath for one drone and one chance.
  • No ads, no timers, no energy.
