OREHELM
Grab your pickaxe and head underground.
Orehelm combines fast active mining runs with idle progression. Smash the central ore vein, chase resources across the cave, level up and choose powerful upgrades that can completely change the way each run plays.
Every expedition starts small. How deep it goes depends on the build you create.
MINE AND COLLECT
Stay close to the ore vein and your dwarf mines automatically.
Every strike sends resources flying across the cave. Common ore lands nearby, while valuable gems can fly much farther away.
Leave the vein to collect them — but every second spent running is a second you are not mining.
Choose what is worth chasing.
BUILD A DIFFERENT RUN
Collect resources to earn XP and level up.
At every level, choose one of three upgrades.
Increase mining speed. Create extra shards. Expand your pickup range. Improve your luck. Extend the timer. Trigger explosive strikes. Build around automatic collection or unlock goblin helpers to gather resources for you.
Combine upgrades and turn a short expedition into a powerful mining run.
DISCOVER RARER RESOURCES
Collect multiple tiers of ore and gems, from basic stone to valuable crystals.
Rare resources are harder to reach, but they unlock stronger upgrades and deeper progression back at camp.
BUILD YOUR MINING CAMP
Resources collected during runs are permanent.
Spend them on Skills and Mines that improve future expeditions.
Unlock and upgrade automated mines to generate resources over time — even while you are away.
Reach mine milestones to gain bonuses for your active runs.
PUT GOBLINS TO WORK
Unlock goblin collectors and add them to your possible run upgrades.
Summon helpers, improve their movement and collection abilities, and create builds where your dwarf keeps mining while a crew of goblins races after valuable gems.
DESCEND DEEPER
Complete the goals of your current depth and Descend farther underground.
Normal progression resets, but you earn Ancient Crystals for permanent Deep Tree upgrades.
Each descent opens the path to stronger progression and new discoveries.
YOUR MINE KEEPS WORKING
Return to your camp to collect resources produced while you were away.
Upgrade your mines, unlock new skills, improve your next run and keep digging deeper.

Mine rare gems, choose upgrades, grow idle mines and descend deeper.
