Deepstep: Cave Digging Puzzle

Dig deep, think ahead, one step at a time. Deepstep is a calm, turn-based cave digging puzzle game: guide a little mole in a hard hat, mine sparkling gems and dodge falling rocks on your way to the exit.

Nothing moves until you do. Rocks fall, gems roll and beetles crawl only when your mole takes a step, so you always have time to think. No timer, no lives, and every mistake can be undone.

Inspired by the classic cave-digging games, Deepstep turns the idea into a relaxing logic puzzle you solve at your own pace. Every level is hand-made and hides a clever way through.

HOW TO PLAY
• Swipe to move your mole one square: every swipe is one step
• Dig through soil and collect enough gems to open the exit
• Rocks and gems fall when nothing is below them, and roll off round things
• Step under a resting rock from the side, but never walk straight down beneath it
• A falling gem is harmless: stand below it and catch it
• Push a rock sideways when there is room behind it
• Beetles follow the tunnels with their left hand on the wall; a little arrow shows where each one goes next
• Tap Wait to let the world move without you
