How to play Blockminer Run

Nothing here needs explaining twice. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. It fills the player in landscape, so use the fullscreen button on desktop and turn your phone sideways on mobile. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.

Why it is worth playing

What keeps Blockminer Run worth returning to is how quickly a single round resolves. It respects your time — you are never more than a click from another attempt. It is not trying to be anything larger, and it is better for it.
