The sky is broken. You woke up in the wreck of a fallen star with no memory, and a strange little machine called ECHO is the only one who knows why. Rustbloom is a big single-player open-world adventure: explore it on foot, by glider or in your own mech, fight Blight monsters and Dominion soldiers, and uncover what really happened to Veyra. A WORLD TO EXPLORE • Seven regions: rust forests, glass deserts, a stormy coast, a swamp, frozen mountains, volcanic slopes and the shattered crater at the heart of it all • Fourteen towns full of people: shopkeepers, gossips, riddles, buskers, fortune tellers, arm-wrestlers and dozens of side quests • Explorable ruins and giant landmarks with one-of-a-kind treasures, plus caves, mines, shrines and hidden caches • Day and night, weather, and a narrated story that slowly comes together SEVEN DUNGEONS • Huge dungeons with branching tunnels, locked doors, keys and a boss at the end • Each one gives you a new ability (Grapple Hook, Power Gauntlet, Frost, Fire, Siege Seal, Tide Bell and Rift Step) that you need to solve its puzzles, and old abilities keep coming back YOUR MECH • One mech, seven modes: walk as a war-walker, race as a car, fly as a jet, and more • Upgrade each mode with its own parts FIGHT, CRAFT, GROW • Sword combat with dodges, parries and special moves, a Pulse Caster with fire and frost, and bombs • A skill tree, gear and charms to find, food to cook, and towns with their own specialties Plays fully offline. No ads, no accounts, no in-app purchases. Touch controls, game controllers, keyboard and mouse all supported.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Rustbloom at none against Dig Down's 1. Rustbloom also leads on ads (none vs shown). Dig Down's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
