Steamworld Dig 2

[TriedandTested]

Suprised there's no thread on this already. It's bloomin' brilliant. Fantastic gameplay (constantly rewarding), tight controls and a totally awesome soundtrack. Lots of different game mechanics to keep it interesting.

SteamWorld Dig 2 takes you on a platform mining adventure forged in Metroidvania flames. When an old trading town is struck by mysterious earthquakes, it’s up to a lone steambot and her unlikely companion to uncover what trembling terrors lie beneath.

• Dig your way underground and explore vivid worlds riddled with treasure, secrets and traps.

• Combat dangerous enemies at every turn of the underworld’s twisted paths, including shadowy creatures and the haunted remains of an ancient electrical threat.

• Upgrade your gear to forge deeper into the earth and take on bigger challenges.

• Swing across large chasms with your Hookshot and fly through caves with the Jet Engine!

And finally, learn the truth about your long lost friend…
