Although it may not sound very appealing to constantly dig through layers of rock and backtrack to the surface to sell your loot, the gameplay works. SteamWorld Dig is addicting, rewarding, and highly entertaining. It combines the “mining game” style very well with the focus on platforming and exploration seen in classic Metroid games, providing a satisfying and stylish experience that feels fresh and unique despite its obvious inspirations.
TSA writes: We revisit the games that put SteamWorld on the map with the digging metroidvania adventures of SteamWorld Dig and SteamWorld Dig 2.
From IGN: "Thunderful Games has four separate SteamWorld games in development with three expected to launch next year.
The company revealed during its latest financial results that SteamWorld Headhunter - a third person action adventure that was revealed in November - is just one of four different genres the SteamWorld franchise is exploring. It is expected to launch in 2023, along with two others.
Those two, codenamed 'Strawberry' and 'Coffee', will be followed in 2024 by 'Caramel'. Are all listed as "SteamWorld IP" games, with Strawberry and Coffee actually listed before Headhunter in Thunderful's development timeline."
