Drillzilla

The drill never stops. You decide how hot it gets.

Drillzilla is an idle mining game with a trigger. Hold anywhere and the bit spins up, heat climbs into the red, and every prize in range lights up in the colour of the blast that can reach it. Let go at the right moment and the shaft erupts — gold, TNT, gas pockets and treasure chests going off in one chain. Hold a fraction too long and the drill stalls, red-hot and useless, while the metres tick by.

Five perfect releases in a row is a streak, and a streak pays like a jackpot.

• Dig forever: an endless shaft through dirt and worms, buried bones, magma veins and a crystal core — then deeper still, again and again.

• Wake a buried city: breach the roof of the lost streets and watch the engine light up, the power spread and a bridge come down into the treasury.

• Earn while you are away: the drill keeps digging with the app closed and pays for up to four hours off, doubled if you want the ad.

• Upgrade a monster: drill power, greed, a wider bit that chews whole rows, blast power, coolant and reach — and every upgrade shows up on the drill itself.

• Break the bosses: each layer ends in a riveted steel slab worth a hundred blocks.

• Drill through reality: prestige for permanent depth shards, then pick a core that changes how the shaft plays.

• No timers, no energy bar: play for ten seconds or an hour. Progress saves on your device.

Free to play, with ads you choose to watch and one that pays for your time away. A reduced-motion setting is included.
