We tell you who should skip it, too.

Play it if you…

Good fit
  • Simulation players who enjoy coordinating construction vehicles and deliveries
  • Players who prefer task-focused tunnel-building scenarios over open-ended worlds
  • Players interested in managing several machines within a changing worksite

Skip it if you…

Saves you a refund
  • Players who want immediate drilling may hit a wall when they must first blast rock, clear the entrance and prepare supplies.
  • Players who prefer a single-machine simulation may find the repeated switching between vehicles and control-room visits demanding.
  • Players seeking combat, character progression or a story-led adventure may find the construction focus too narrow.

Our take on Mining & Tunneling Simulator

The bounce point arrives when the tunnel machine is ready but cannot operate until building materials are delivered by crane and train. Players who lose track of several simultaneous worksite tasks may stall during the supply and coordination phase.

What is Mining & Tunneling Simulator?

Build a tunnel site by blasting rock, clearing the entrance and coordinating excavation work.

TNT creates the opening, while a shovel dozer loads removed material onto a dump truck for delivery to storage. After the entrance is cleared, a large drilling machine arrives, but it requires building materials delivered by crane and train before it can operate. The game assigns control of several vehicles, including a maintenance van, crane, drilling machine and fire brigade vehicle. Progress depends on tracking multiple tasks, keeping the drilling equipment supplied and returning to the control room. Weather changes and day-and-night shifts accompany the construction work. Levels can be selected after all tasks have been completed.
