Cobalt Miner
SteamAbout Cobalt Miner
🌵 A debt you can’t escape
It’s 2046. Water is scarce. Land is barren. Corporations rule everything. You are bound by a contract you never truly understood - a massive debt owed to a ruthless megacorporation. The only way out?
Extract. Build. Expand. Survive.
Every unit of cobalt you mine brings you closer to freedom… or deeper into the system.
⛏️ MINING & RESOURCE EXTRACTION
Start with basic tools and carve your way through a harsh, dry landscape rich in valuable minerals.
•
Mine cobalt and rare resources
•
Discover new deposits across expanding regions
•
Manage limited energy and equipment durability
•
Optimize routes between extraction sites and storage
•
Sell resources and crafted goods in settlements
What begins as manual labor quickly becomes a logistical challenge.
🤖 AUTOMATION & PRODUCTION
You weren’t meant to do this alone.
Build a growing industrial network in the middle of nowhere:
•
Deploy automated drills and extractors
•
Use drones to transport and manage resources
•
Create processing chains to refine raw materials
•
Expand with storage units and power systems
Design your own efficient production system - or watch it collapse under its own weight.
🔧 CRAFTING & UPGRADES
Turn raw materials into survival.
•
Craft tools, machines, and infrastructure
•
Upgrade your gear, extraction speed, and efficiency
•
Improve your electric motorbike for longer expeditions
•
Unlock advanced technologies as your operation grows
Every upgrade is a step toward independence - and a bigger target on your back.
🏍️ EXPLORATION & TRAVEL
The world is vast. And it doesn’t care about you.
Travel across desolate terrain:
•
Explore new zones filled with resources and secrets
•
Ride your electric motorbike across long distances
•
Manage battery levels - always carry spares
•
Navigate hazards, abandoned sites, and hidden locations
Freedom is out there. But reaching it won’t be easy.
🏙️ STORY & WORLD
You’re not alone in this broken system.
•
Meet people trying to survive under corporate control
•
Trade in remote settlements and struggling towns
•
Uncover stories hidden beneath contracts and machines
•
Decide how far you’re willing to go to clear your debt
Not everyone believes in freedom anymore.
