Mining Mechs Franchise Recap

Hey everyone!

Today Valve has been generous enough to include Mining Mechs as today's "Deal of the Day" on Steam. Because of the amount of new players learning about the game today, I figured I'd make a little post to recap the 2 games in the franchise, and the upcoming spin-off.

Mining Mechs

Mining Mechs is the first game in the series and offers a relaxing, chill, casual mining experience. Mine in singleplayer or with up to 8 players in online co-op and unravel the storyline as you make your way down. The base game takes about 3-5 hours to complete, and each DLC adds an additional world to explore, with a new storyline, new mechs and new resources, offering a similar amount of playtime. If you're looking for a short and fun mining experience, this one is perfect!

You can check out the game and all of its DLC in the Gold Edition bundle and get an additional 10% discount:

Super Mining Mechs

Super Mining Mechs is the sequel to Mining Mechs, adding a bunch of new features to the game such as modular mechs that can be built from unlockable parts, multiple planets to travel to and explore, underground building, a passive skill tree, an all-new objective system and a fully voiced storyline. It has online co-op similar to its prequel and takes about 15 hours to complete. If you're looking for a bit more freedom and a longer grind, this is the one for you!

You can find the game and all of its DLC here in the Gold Edition bundle and get an additional 10% discount:

Mining Merchant

Mining Merchant is my upcoming game! It's a spin-off to the Mining Mechs series with a focus on shopkeeping, where you set out to restore your uncle's crumbling shop. You have to mine for resources by day, craft them into valuable goods, and sell them in your shop at night. Just like the previous games, Mining Merchant supports online co-op, so if you enjoy mining with friends and running a shop together, make sure to add the game to your Steam wishlist to get notified on launch!

Please add Mining Merchant to your Steam wishlist!

Franchise Bundle

Lastly, if you're a mining fan and you just want everything, there's also a "Complete Franchise" bundle containing both of my games + all DLC and extras. You can find it here and get an additional 30% discount on top of the other discounts:

Alrighty, that's it! Hope you all have a great weekend and rest of your week, and happy mining! If you want to stay updated on my next game and upcoming updates / DLC, follow the Steam franchise page below, or join the Discord!
