Our take on Tile Miner
The defining structure is an infinite randomly generated world where almost every tile can be removed or placed, making terrain alteration central to exploration and building.
What is Tile Miner?
Tile Miner is a top-down adventure set in an infinite, randomly generated world where almost all tiles can be broken and placed.
Find food and shelter before nightfall, then shape the landscape and build and furnish a shelter. Farm crops, mine mountains and caves for ores, and explore biomes for enemies and treasures. Craft tools, weapons, and armor, and use a cauldron to make potions or a spell-making table to create magical items. Buildings can be populated with villagers who have different occupations. Craft compasses to locate dungeons and fight their enemies.
