Oredrift is an idle mining clicker game where you dig deeper through layers of rock, collect valuable ore and build a more efficient mining operation. Start by tapping or clicking the rock yourself, then use your earnings to improve your tools and hire diggers who continue working while you are away.
As you dig farther underground, the rock becomes harder while the potential rewards increase. When your mining progress begins to slow, you can collapse the shaft and start a new run deeper with the upgrades and progress that make future digging more efficient.
Begin each run by repeatedly clicking or tapping the rock face. Every hit removes part of the rock and generates ore that can be spent on improvements. Investing your earnings wisely helps you dig faster and build a more productive mining operation.
Every piece of ore you collect can help improve your next stage of mining. Early in a run, active clicking helps you establish your progress, while hired diggers gradually take on more of the work. Choosing when to spend your ore on better picks and additional digging power is an important part of the progression.
Oredrift becomes more demanding as you move through the rock. Deeper layers take more effort to break, but the underground rewards become more valuable. Keep improving your mining operation so that each new run can push farther than the previous one.
When the shaft slows down, collapsing it gives you a fresh start deeper underground while keeping the progress you have purchased. This reset-style mechanic encourages you to improve your mining efficiency and make each new run more productive.
Mine through the rock by clicking or tapping the rock face. Collect ore, improve your mining tools and hire diggers to keep the operation running. When the shaft becomes slow, collapse it and begin another run deeper with your purchased improvements.
