The mine near our town is deserted – but guess what! There is a rumor that there is an ancient technology hidden underground that will help us in oppression. Gather a group of daredevils, gather wagons and let's build a new house! Gather resources and mine ore, thanks to which steam robots will join us. With their support, our settlement will grow, and maybe we will even be able to get out of here! When the town's boundaries grow a bit, more steam robots will come to it! Each of them has its own whims and only you can take care of their needs. Trade to increase productivity, keep an eye on the flow of resources between the settlement and the mines, and ensure everyone's satisfaction – so your crew will give their best. Anyone who looks into the abyss long enough begins to feel its gaze on them... You come to seek wealth, but what lies underground does not want to share it! Grab your gun, stick a shovel in it, and make sure the mines don't collapse as you defend yourself from the hideous creatures that lurk in the dark...
