Editorial interest 83/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Victorian coal-pit management game set in the Durham coalfield, where players mine, hire workers, buy improvements, and try to outproduce rival pits.

For
Players interested in industrial history and management games
Worth noticing
The hire menu makes labor a safety tradeoff: a trapper costs 15 shillings and lowers safety, while the steam engine raises it.

Field notes

The interface tracks stamina for manual swings, worker wages, coal output, and safety changes as separate parts of the pit economy. Its historical ledger begins in 1837, while a live-style leaderboard lists rival works and sets 30 tons per second as the displayed target for taking the lead. The page credits four creators and offers Google or email sign-in for naming a pit and posting it to the register.
