"One day, you come to visit Goblin Island, a free, fun and exciting place. However, you discover that even though admission is free, you need a million coins to leave the island! What." Head to the mines, diligently mine for ore, and sell what you collect to earn coins. Acquiring a new pickaxe allows you to venture into deeper areas. As your capabilities expand, your coin earnings will skyrocket—transforming that steady, methodical digging into a satisfying rush of massive profits. This major update also introduces the new "Sandstone Area" and the "Drill Merge" system! Dig through sandstone to uncover drills, then merge three identical ones to level them up. Wield your upgraded drills to dig even deeper. Start by digging steadily, then watch the pace pick up. Turn a few spare moments into a little bit of fun. Why not aim for a million coins on Goblin's Island?

Nihongo DX7: Prologue is a playable demo of an educational RPG designed to help players learn Japanese while exploring Tokyo. Step into the shoes of Malo, who has just arrived in Japan, and travel through iconic districts such as Haneda, Shin-Okubo, Shinjuku, Asakusa, and Ueno. Talk to local residents, complete quests, discover useful vocabulary, and put your knowledge into practice through mini-games and exercises seamlessly integrated into the adventure. The Prologue features: • a narrative pixel art adventure; • contextualized dialogues available in French and English; • progressive Japanese language learning; • comprehension, vocabulary, and sentence-ordering exercises; • mini-games focused on kana and kanji; • a progression and save system; • an adventure inspired by travel and the discovery of Tokyo. Words and expressions are not presented as simple vocabulary lists to memorize. Instead, they naturally appear throughout dialogues, locations, interactions, and situations encountered during the adventure. This Prologue version introduces the core Nihongo DX7 experience. The full game is still in development and will continue to expand with new areas, features, fixes, and improvements. Japanese becomes an adventure.
