Drill Keeper

Play as a heroic Drill Keeper in this deckbuilding roguelike siege defense game where you travel the galaxy in an effort to secure vital resources for your people. As a dutiful symbol of the future, you will be tasked with protecting your Planetary Drill – build fortresses around your mining operations to protect it from the dangers that lurk in the depths of distant planets, designing labyrinthine pathways and traps to stall and bewilder the enemy. And if a sense of duty isn’t enough of a motivator, you should know that your parent corporation has installed a neural implant that will kill you should your Drill be destroyed – it’s expensive equipment, after all!

Does the vast expanse of the galaxy call to you? Do you want to work with state of the art drilling technology? Have you dreamt of strip-mining entire planets to their core while building massive defensive fortifications to hold back and gun-down alien attackers? Then you’ll dig this gig!

• Each planet you visit on a run will feature unique challenges and opportunities every time, with a variety of possible objectives to keep you on your toes, unlocking new cards and planets as you complete them. Occasional supply drops will assist your operation by providing additional resources, including rare artifacts, and even more cards for your ongoing run.
• Procedurally generated dig sites are influenced by unique planetary modifiers – at times you’ll find yourself fortunate enough to be surrounded by bountiful treasures and easily removed brittle walls with only a distant enemy spawning pool, while at others, the riches may be distant, and the enemy right by your side. Surrounded by resources, enemy spawning pools, and unique points of interest, you will always have a fresh set of considerations to build your mining strategy around.
• Every tile around you can be destroyed, either in a calculated manner when digging in pursuit of gold, shards, and mysterious treasures, or by environmental effects that may inadvertently help or hinder your position. Manually digging between drill activations takes stamina, and pushing yourself too hard will invite negative consequences. This means the need for a carefully planned approach as digging is not only the primary source of resources with which to play your cards, but a powerful tool for defense as well.
