Title
Underground treasure hunt
A free browser game in which you play as a robot and dig tunnels to get precious metal ores. Sell those ores to get more powerful engine and drilling tools, and repeat the process over and over again. After a while the tunnels you dig down take a good minute to fall through, and without spoiling the game, its very much worth it continuing as there is a finite ending to this story.

Its a surprisingly charming and replayable browser game. It controls well and has a decent story, which is way more than i could ask out of a title like this. It doesnt quite hold up to the quality of modern indie games though, and whilst i did enjoy my time with it back then i wonder who am i going to recommend this one to.
