Idle Deepcore is a pixel-art idle mining game about digging from the surface all the way down to the planet's molten core — and beyond, into orbit. Tap to break blocks and collect ore, then buy machines — jackhammers, steam drills, seismic hammers, excavators and more — to mine for you, even while you're away. The deeper you dig, the rarer the ore and the tougher the blocks. FEATURES • Tap-to-mine with crunchy pixel-art feedback • Automate with a roster of upgradeable mining machines • Smelt raw ore into valuable ingots in your furnaces • Descend through distinct biomes to ever-deeper layers • Prestige to reset for permanent power and unlock new systems • Skill tree, mastery nodes and a research lab to specialize each run • Build a rocket and mine asteroids out in orbit • Offline progress — your machines keep mining while the app is closed • Cloud save via Game Center — back up and restore your progress • Playable in 29 languages Optional rewarded ads can double your offline haul — never required to progress. Dig deeper. Get richer. Idle Deepcore.
Olympus

Mount Olympus is under siege, and only the gods can hold it. Olympus Siege is an idle tower defense game set in Greek mythology: invoke the twelve Olympians, unleash their blessings and hold your throne against endless waves of mythic monsters. Your defense keeps fighting even while you are offline. TWELVE GODS, TWELVE BLESSINGS Awaken Zeus, Poseidon, Ares, Apollo, Athena, Aphrodite and the rest of the pantheon. Every god grants a blessing that changes how you defend: Chain Lightning arcs through the horde, Tidal Waves sweep the field, Whirling Death spins blades around your throne, Sun Strike calls down pillars of fire. Mix them into a tower defense strategy that is yours alone. AN IDLE TOWER DEFENSE THAT NEVER STOPS Waves of shades, harpies, cyclopes and hydras climb toward your throne, and every tenth wave a boss breaks through. Hold the line, push deeper, and when you close the game the siege goes on: return to souls, ichor and reliquaries earned while you were away. Idle progress, offline rewards, and no need to watch the screen. CHAMPIONS OF THE DEEP WAVES Hold long enough and elite champions join the horde. The Stormrunner sends nearby enemies racing, the Bronzehide shrugs off your weapons and the Godwarden wards the horde against your blessings. Every champion you fell pays a rich reward. UPGRADE YOUR DEFENSE IN THE PANTHEON Spend souls on hundreds of upgrade levels: damage, critical hits, attack speed, range, regeneration, Thorns and more. Unlock new rows as your defense grows, revive your throne with Charon's Refusal, and watch your idle tower defense climb from wave 1 to wave 10,000 and beyond. COLLECT RELICS OF POWER Unseal reliquaries to build a collection across five rarity tiers, from common Arcadian relics to world-bending Primordial mythics. Legendary relics grant real mechanics: execute weakened foes, slow the horde, detonate the fallen. MYTHOS AND TRIUMPHS Recover every god's lore, fragment by fragment, by using their blessings in battle, and earn a permanent boon with each one. Claim Triumphs for every milestone of the siege. CLIMB THE LEADERBOARD Push your best wave onto the global top 100 and prove you can outlast the world. FEATURES • Idle tower defense with offline progress: the siege continues while you're away • Twelve Greek gods with unique blessings and deep upgrade paths • Weapons to switch between: the sword, the spear and the bow • Boss battles every ten waves and elite champions deeper in • Incremental upgrades with no level cap on damage or health • Five-tier relic collection with legendary mechanics • Mythos lore collection with permanent boons • Global leaderboard, smooth 60 fps battles, clean top-down art • Play offline, no account needed A tower defense game for fans of idle games, incremental games and strategy TD. Invoke the gods, hold the gates of Olympus, and see how deep you can defend.
