## What is Neko Mine?

Dig, upgrade, and dive again. Neko Mine is a relaxing pixel-art idle mining game.

Every floor is free to play. The only ad is a small banner at the bottom (no full-screen ads); remove it with "No Ads for 1 Month" (renews automatically every month) or "No Ads Forever" (one-time purchase). Catnip Bags and a Starter Pack are also available as in-app purchases.

■ The joy of digging
Lead a crew of cats deep underground. Break blocks, gather ore, and upgrade your Cat Crew. Your cats keep digging while you're away, so you'll see progress every time you come back — even on busy days.

■ Biomes and bosses
Sunny soil, icicle caves, crystal halls, magma and fossil mazes — the scenery changes the deeper you go, and a powerful boss waits every 10 floors. Five more biomes, each with a new boss, wait beyond B51F.

■ Rebirth to grow stronger
Once you've gone deep enough, use Rebirth to start over and bring home Catnip that powers up your crew for good. The deeper you dig, the faster and deeper your next run goes.

■ Skill tree, Cat Album, and goals
Shape your play style with a skill tree for mining, gold, and idle play. Catch stray cats to fill your Cat Album, and enjoy clearing goals, daily missions, and achievements one by one.

■ No account needed
No sign-up or login needed — download and start digging right away.

Dig a little in a spare moment, or take one more dive before bed. Go as deep as you like, at your own pace.

### 3/5 — 可愛くて面白いけど…

*2026-10-07*

余ったまたたびの使い道が無い…、全スキル強化した後は転生してダメージボーナスを稼ぐぐらいしか強化の方法が無く、100Fまで行っても150ぐらい？しかまたたびが貰えないので1Fでひたすら転生ボタンを連打するだけ…
