Dig for gold by hand, then build water-powered drills, pipes and conveyors that turn a muddy plot into an automated mine.
Who can play
- Split-screen for up to 4 players on PC, PS5 and Xbox.
- No online play on any platform.
- One copy is enough with Remote Play Together on PC.
How it plays
Everyone plays on one split screen in the same world, so one player can dig while another wires up pipes and a third sells the haul.
With no inventory, everything is carried by hand, which makes shared projects slow, physical and often funny.
On PC the split screen streams to friends over Remote Play Together, so only the host needs a copy.
