Kurz aber cool

Habe in 90 Minuten meinen ersten Durchlauf gespielt.
Es macht Spaß Ressourcen zu sammeln, den Miner zu upgraden und immer Tiefer vorzustoßen.

Es wären Automatisierungen, wie Helfer cool, die Tunnel graben. Eine Option nach oben zu bohren. Und natürlich noch tiefere Schichten und mehr zu erkunden.

Insgesamt aber nett - und Größe ist cool ^^

Great Game *****

Descent is a fantastic throwback to classic mining games. The gameplay loop is simple but surprisingly addictive—dig deeper, upgrade your rig, and manage your fuel carefully. I love that it’s completely offline with no ads, no in-app purchases, and no account requirements. The progression feels rewarding, and the deeper you go, the more strategic it becomes. If you’re looking for a relaxing yet challenging game with old-school charm, this is absolutely worth playing!
