what is DIG-16?

Explore the universe mining minerals, automating production, and upgrading gear to unlock new planets.

DIG-16 is an idle mining game where you collect minerals by breaking blocks and automate refining in your factory. Use resources to build better mining equipment and expand your operations across multiple planets.

It sits in the Idle / Prestige / Numbers / Management / Automation corner of the genre. Like most idle games it runs on a simple loop — earn, reinvest, automate — but the depth is in how long that loop keeps unfolding. Expect to check in, make a few decisions, and watch the numbers climb whether you're at the keyboard or not.
