Description

In Dig-N-Rig the player must guide the Diggit 6400 robot to the core of the earth. At the beginning of the game the robots only equipment is a Dirt digger but this wont take the player far down into the earth. Better equipment can be bought and upgraded in the lab, but this requires resources. There are 8 different type of resources in the game:

  • Metaloid
  • Alumon
  • Explodium
  • Energite
  • Radioacton
  • Atomidice
  • Sciphide
  • Rareiest

Once the minerals have been dug out they must be transported to the processor at the surface. This is done by building conveyor belts and scoopers. Except for the digging tools there are 7 different upgrades for the robot:

  • Jump upgrade: Makes the robot jump higher
  • Wifi range upgrade: Makes it possible to go deeper down
  • Health upgrade: Increases the robots health
  • Jetpack: Gives the robot a jetpack
  • Lava & water resistance: Makes the robot immune to water and lava damage
  • Mineral scanner: Helps to detect minerals
  • Vacuum teleporter: Transports minerals instantly

Not every type of equipment is available from the start. The further down the player goes the more equipment will become available. 6 types of items can also be bought in the lab:

  • Battery: Restores 100 units of energy
  • Dynamite: Blows up a small area
  • Double dynamite: Blows up a larger area
  • Mega bomb: Blows up a large area
  • Dirtzooka ammo: Ammo for the dirtzooka
  • Dirtzooka upgrade: A rocket weapon

These will make the journey to the center of the earth a bit easier.
