The core mechanics are relatively simple - you navigate through the mines and unearth gems by digging through different types of soil - but you'll figure out new ways to use the fairly simple set of actions you have as you progress.

"Full bore has humor, charm, and a slight bit of social commentary a la George Orwell’s “Animal Farm”, and it has its satisfying puzzles and exploration elements. It has 16 bit nostalgia appeal and catchy, memorable music. It also has a tendency of leading you to get lost a little too often when searching for solutions to a puzzle or an exit, and the controls can be atrocious at times."
