The town is built above an abandoned mine filled with valuable tech and riches, but there is also danger just below the surface. Make use of the resources above ground and the abundant ores in the mine to expand your town and attract new residents.

However, be cautious as you venture deeper into the mine, as a mysterious force is hunting you. Keep your workers protected and the walls strong as you explore the mine’s depths.
