Lantern & Lode

Gather a crew of miners and take them down into the depths of Lantern & Lode — a pixel-art idle mining game of deep caverns, strange finds and monstrous bosses.

Break the rock, earn your coin and go deeper. Frozen depths, fungal hollows, drowned halls: every place below hides new stone, new finds and a guardian waiting at the bottom. Beat the boss before the clock runs out — or come back stronger.

GATHER YOUR MINERS
Summon miners with crystals: each has a face, a name, a kin and a trade. Level them up, hunt for the rare ones and choose who stands at the stone.

GROW THE GROTTO
Plant mushrooms in the glowing grotto. Your miners eat them to grow stronger, and the strangest caps grow crystals.

OPEN THE BONANZA
Crack open crates every day: mushrooms, coins, crystals and rarer things. Follow the mushroom trail for more.

LIFE UNDERGROUND
Send the winch into the Abyss, cast Wishing Coals on the brazier, take your crew to the Arena — and look into the strange rooms hidden between the floors.

THE MINE NEVER SLEEPS
Your miners keep working while you are away. Come back and collect what they dug.

Hand-drawn pixel art, warm lantern light and a mine with a long memory.

Light your lantern. Grab your pickaxe. See what waits deeper.
