Lantern & Lode
Read full descriptionHide full description
Gather a crew of miners and take them down into the depths of Lantern & Lode โ a pixel-art idle mining game of deep caverns, heavy hauls and monstrous bosses. Break the rock, fill the bunker, haul the ore and go deeper. Frozen depths, fungal hollows, drowned halls: every place below hides new stone, new finds and a guardian waiting at the bottom. Beat the boss before the clock runs out โ or come back stronger. GATHER YOUR CREW Summon miners, each with a face, a name and a trade. Choose who goes down, rest the tired, and hunt for the rare ones who never tire. DIG, HAUL, GO DEEPER Tap to strike, let the crew swing, and keep the bunker from overflowing. Clear the quota, ride the lift down and meet what waits below. LIFE UNDERGROUND Cook in the Kitchen's great cauldron, send the winch into the Abyss, cast Wishing Coals on the brazier, crack open loot chests โ and look into the strange rooms hidden between the floors. THE MINE NEVER SLEEPS Your crew keeps working while you are away. Come back to the shift report and collect the haul. Hand-drawn pixel art, warm lantern light and a mine with a long memory. Light your lantern. Grab your pickaxe. See what waits deeper.
