Seguir cavando

 
Seguir cavando is the ultimate “podcast game”—a title designed to be played while your brain is half-occupied with conversation or audio. Released on September 11, 2025, by Japanese indie studio Wild Dog Inc., this laid-back co-op simulation strips away the survival stress of Minecraft to focus entirely on the primal satisfaction of moving dirt. There are no creepers, no hunger bars, and no complex redstone circuits; just you, seven friends, and 1,000 meters of earth standing between you and the bottom.
Shovels, Sales, and Strata: Core Gameplay

The 1,000-Meter Descent: The goal is deceptively simple: dig down. The game world consists of 10 distinct geological layers, each reaching 100 meters deeper. As you descend, the soil gets tougher, requiring better tools, but the rewards become significantly more valuable.
No Combat, Just Vibes: Unlike almost every other mining game, Seguir cavando has zero combat. You will never be ambushed by a goblin or spider. The challenge comes purely from resource management and upgrading your efficiency. It creates a “cozy” atmosphere where the only enemy is the durability of your pickaxe.
The Economy of Dirt: You don’t just dig; you sell. You haul your inventory of ores, fossils, and artifacts back to the surface (or intermediate trade posts) to cash out. This money is reinvested into a satisfying upgrade tree that lets you dig faster, carry more, and scan for hidden veins.
8-Player Co-op: The game shines in multiplayer. While digging alone is meditative, digging with 7 friends is an industrial operation. Players naturally fall into roles—some focus on vertical shaft digging, others branch out for veins, and some act as “mules,” ferrying resources back to the sell point so the diggers don’t have to stop.
Ancient Tech: Beyond just selling rocks, you uncover “Ancient Technology” that provides permanent buffs to your team, adding a layer of meta-progression that keeps the loop from feeling too repetitive.

Cómo funciona
Seguir cavando simplifies the mining genre to its absolute core.

Diferencia clave




Minecraft
Minecraft is a survival sandbox where mining is a means to an end (building/surviving). Seguir cavando makes mining the entire game. There is no building castles or fighting zombies here—only the hole.


Terraria
Terraria is an action-RPG disguised as a mining game, focused on boss fights and loot. Seguir cavando has no bosses or weapons. It’s for players who find Terraria‘s combat stressful and just want to explore the underground.


Deep Rock Galactic
DRG is a high-octane shooter about mining under fire. Seguir cavando is the “peaceful mode” version of that fantasy. You get the camaraderie of being a dwarf with friends, but without the bugs trying to eat you.

A quién va dirigido

Imprescindible para friend groups who just want to chat. The low-stakes gameplay makes it the perfect background activity for catching up with friends on Discord without anyone screaming “He’s one shot!”
Perfecto para completionists. The museum-filling aspect of collecting artifacts and completing the tech tree provides a satisfying checklist for players who love seeing numbers go up.
Saltar si you need adrenaline. If you get bored without a fail state or an enemy to fight, you will bounce off this immediately. It is aggressively chill.

Por qué funciona
It works because it understands flow state. The rhythmic action of clicking blocks, the “ding” of collecting a gem, and the gradual visual progress of the hole getting deeper scratches a very specific itch in the human brain. By removing all friction (combat, hunger, gravity damage), it allows players to enter a trance-like state of productivity that feels like work, but the fun kind.
