Dig Drone PASS Free dig-down upgrade game
Dig Drone: digging game online free
Dig Drone is a free digging game for your browser. You steer a little drill-bird called a wren down through bright layers of soil, clay, sandstone, slate, crystal caves, ember rock and the golden core. Hold anywhere to dig, slide your finger to steer toward copper, silver, gold and gems, and grab fuel cans on the way. When the fuel runs out the run ends and your coins are banked. Spend them in the workshop on a faster drill, a bigger fuel tank, a magnet that pulls ores from the side columns and polish that makes every ore worth more, then dig again and go deeper. While you are away, your helper drone digs up coins for you. The Daily Dig gives everyone the same ground and the same rig, so depths compare fairly.
How to play Dig Drone
- Hold anywhere on the game to dig straight down.
- Slide your finger left or right to steer toward ores and around boulders.
- Let go to stop digging and save fuel.
- Ores pay coins; red fuel cans add fuel.
- When the fuel runs out, spend your coins in the workshop and dig again.
- Come back later: your drone digs up coins while you are away.

Dig Drone tips and strategy
- Boulders take long to crack early on: steer around them.
- Caves are free depth: fall through them without using drill time.
- Buy the Fuel tank and Drill first, then the Magnet.
- Gems only appear from the Slate Deep (120 m) down.

Dig Drone FAQ
Is Dig Drone free?
Yes. Digging, every upgrade, the drone and the Daily Dig are free, with no ads and no sign-up. The optional CyberMax Fun Pass adds every past Daily Dig and two wren looks.
How do I get deeper?
Spend the coins from each run on upgrades: the Drill digs faster and cracks boulders, the Fuel tank makes runs longer, the Magnet collects ores from side columns and Polish raises the coins per ore.
Is it an idle game?
Partly. Runs are short and active, and your helper drone also digs up coins while you are away, for up to 8 hours.
Is the Daily Dig fair?
Yes. Everyone gets the same ground and the same rig that day, whatever they have upgraded, so depths compare fairly.
Can I play offline?
Yes, after the first visit, and you can add it to your home screen like an app.
