There is no tutorial to sit through — the game explains itself. Point, click, done: the mouse is the entire control scheme. It fills the player in landscape, so use the fullscreen button on desktop and turn your phone sideways on mobile. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.

Why it is worth playing
What makes Cave Miner stick is that failure is informative. You can usually name the mistake, and that is what makes another attempt tempting. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
