LODEBOUND

SEASON 1 ROADMAP

A mining game on the Robinhood Chain. Mine while you are away, upgrade the pickaxe, and take it deeper until the shaft caves in. dig, get shafted, repeat.

THE LOOPTBDBUILT
  • The loop already runs end to endMine, forge, dive, collapse, forge again. Eight ores, seven pickaxes, one forge.Thirty thousand runs a tier and twelve full seasons simulated before anyone risked a penny.
  • Mining is the safe halfSet a pickaxe on a deposit and come back to ore. You can only lose a pickaxe down a shaft, never at a deposit.
  • The shafts are the gamble, and the odds are on the screenEvery floor shows your exact odds before you take the step. Climb out whenever you like and keep the lot.
  • One vein in fifty pays twelve timesThe biggest single run measured in testing was 447,000 INGOT.
  • The motherlodeFees feed one pool and half of it goes to whoever turns it up. It can never owe more than it holds.
  • The furnace never promises what it cannot payThe furnace is the treasury that pays every vein. Payouts scale with what it actually holds, up and down.
