Released for XBLIG (2/2009)
Miner Dig Deep is a 2D game with some very basic artwork but quite a bit of content for your buck. You start off topside where you can visit a shop to buy new equipment or use your tent to save your game. Once you step down into the mines, your lantern will light the area around you, highlighting significant resources as you pass by them. With the X button you use your pickaxe and dig your way in any direction. There are also blueprints hidden about and when a set of these are collected you'll unlock additional items. Miner Dig Deep was an awesome title for XBLIG back in 2009, but with the release of similar games like Terraria and Minecraft coming out for the 360 later on the game has largely been forgotten. Miner Dig Deep is oozing with indie charm though and provided quite a bit of entertainment for a buck!
Final Verdict: Miner Dig Deep is an exploration game where you mine around in 2D, collecting resources to buy better equipment and find more stuff. While it was later one-upped by Minecraft and Terraria, before those games it was a unique experience on XBLIG.
