The premise of the game is simple: get drills and dig up rare items. To start, you’ll need to purchase a drill from the Drills Shop. Place the drill on your plot to begin digging. After a short while, you’ll receive your first item. You can either wait for the drill to uncover more items or sell them instantly to earn some Diglets. Diglets are the in-game currency used to purchase drills, gear, and other upgrades.

After you have enough Diglets, go ahead and purchase a better drill from the drill shop. Keep in mind that higher rarity drills will dig up some rare and expensive items. Eventually, you will receive a free Molten Drill for playing the game. This can boost your progress significantly by earning you some rare items. Items with mutations will sell for a higher price at the shop.

Mutations and Gear

You can get some mutations applied to your items. These mutations will raise the price of your items and earn you more Diglets. The various types of mutations that can apply to your items are as follows:

  • Rainbow
  • Golden
  • Mutated

You can obtain gear from the Gear Shop to boost your garden. Some gear provides speed boosts to your drills, while others increase your luck. Ultimately, gear helps you progress faster in the game. However, obtaining gear can be expensive, and in the early game, it’s often more efficient to purchase better drills instead of investing in gear.

Tips for Beginners

Here are some tips for beginners to get ahead in the game:

  • Get Upgrades: As soon as you earn some Diglets, make sure to purchase better drills. Don’t save Diglets to get the rarer drills at the start of your game. You can purchase some low rarity drills and start digging.
  • Manage Your Plot: If you want to efficiently place more drills on your plot and farm for Diglets, make sure to arrange them properly. You can always efficiently place your drills by separating the rarer ones. Place your Drills close to the borders and make your way to the center. This way, you can collect items more easily. Apart from efficiency, your garden will also look decorative.
  • Get Free Drills: There are multiple free drills you can collect during your time in the game. Just look out for the drills floating around the shop areas. You will have to complete some requirements like liking the game and joining its community group. If you don’t mind completing the prerequisites, consider getting these free drills early on in the game.
  • Complete Your Daily Quests: You can visit the quests NPC to check out your daily quests. These are some easy challenges that you can complete to earn Diglets and Chest Keys. There are two types of keys you can collect via these quests. Both the chests opened by these keys will get you the rarest drills in the game.
