I enjoyed this game, I really want to recommend it. However I expected more, not less than 10 hours.

A captivating game with very simple mechanics. You dig, and that's about it. But it's so fun, and apart from the abrupt (though funny) ending, I enjoyed everything about his game. I plan to replay it again soon.

Pros:
+ Digging for materials and exploring for secrets was fun.
Cons:
- Don't play this game if you have OCD. The digging is imprecise and will almost always leave little pieces of floating dirt behind for you to get caught on when trying to move through tunnels. (Expect those specks of dirt to ruin your speedrun attempts.)
- Dynamite sometimes clips through what you're trying to blow up.
- Sometimes you won't be able to pick up material if it's partially buried inside a wall.
- By the time I found the [spoiler]second key for the old trunk, its contents[/spoiler] weren't particularly useful to me.
- The speedrun achievement drove me insane and probably gave me a repetitive strain injury. I ended up using AutoHotKey.
- I understand that the ending is [spoiler]supposed to be a joke, but it rang a little hollow to me considering that we could have dealt with those giant moles if the developer hadn't arbitrarily disabled dynamite.[/spoiler]

Finished the game twice and got 100% achievements in just under 3 hours. It’s a cute and relaxing little game all about digging a hole—and it really nails that cozy, simple gameplay loop.
I do wish there were more maps, decorations, or achievement-based challenges. There’s a lot of potential here for expansion, but even as it is, it’s a fun way to spend an evening or two. For just a couple of bucks, it’s totally worth it.
If you’re in the mood for something light, calm, and satisfying, I definitely recommend it.

While I absolutely LOVE this game, I am aware that my reason for that love is not for it being a "good" game in the sense of what people are probably looking for. If you're like me, autistic and just want a nice repetitive task to do, then you'll love it! Otherwise, probably not so much.
I'm dedicated to digging out as much of the yard as is physically possible (currently six hours in and I'm 30 meters down) and for me that is a very enjoyable task; headphones on, music loud, let's do something repetitive that other people find boring!
But if you're more normal than I am, you probably will do just that: find the game boring due to its repetition.

The main bulk of the game is super fun! the tools and managing battery and such is great! unfortunately the end is what ruins it for me as it takes away all those fun tools and turns from "a game about digging a hole" to "a game about dealing with unkillable one-hit-KO moles" there is no stealth tech so it is not pleasant at all, its extremely unforgiving as you; cant outrun the moles, cant do any damage to the moles, get one hit killed as soon as it touches you. also most almost all achievements are blocked behind beating the game (aka dealing with those damn moles) and then doing it all over again! if the end didnt suck so bad that would give it a least some replayability...
