Editorial interest 77/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A co-op mining game for one to six players, built around drilling through a fresh world of Hell each contract.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-02 issue.

For: Co-op game fans who like mining and comic peril
Worth noticing: The pitch includes Tax Imps, a Limbo waiting room, and a boss sending cheerful radio memos.

Field notes

The described loop tracks fuel, hull, heat, and cargo while players haul material to sell for upgrades. The page says each contract generates a fresh world of hexagonal rock, and names Windows, macOS, Linux, and Steam Deck as platforms. Its homepage offers a Steam wishlist link but gives no release date or playable access details.
