A cozy mining incremental with an animal crew: Gold Digger is coming to Steam

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 

September 29, 2026 — Independent studio Sand Games introduces Gold Digger, a relaxing mining incremental where players dig for gold, upgrade their tools, and hire woodland animals to take over the digging. The Steam page is live now, with a Windows PC release currently planned for June 2027.
 

Start with a small patch of land and click your shovels to earn coins. Put those earnings into better tools, more shovels, and extra room for a growing crew. As your mine expands, unlock skills and dig up treasure chests filled with equipment to help bring in more gold.
 

Each animal has a different job: moles handle the digging, magpies find promising spots, and foxes keep everyone motivated. Join in whenever you feel like it, or sit back and watch a quiet forest clearing fill with busy helpers and bouncing shovels.
 

Key Features

  • Dig for Gold: Turn a small patch of forest into a busy digging operation with more shovels, better tools, and room to grow.
  • Hire Helpers: Bring in moles, magpies, and foxes, each with a distinct role.
  • Unlock Skills: Spend skill points to improve your workers, find rare treasure more often, and unlock silver, gold, and diamond shovels.
  • Find Equipment: Unearth treasure chests, outfit your helpers with hats and boots, and try different shovel parts to improve your setup.
  • Play in 10 Languages: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, and Polish.
 

Availability

Gold Digger is currently planned for release on Windows PC via Steam in June 2027. Players can wishlist the game now.
