In upcoming Nintendo 3DS mining game SteamWorld Dig, steam-powered robots are the ones to root for.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the turn of the 19th century, and humankind has prematurely blown itself to bits. \nThe remaining scraps are huddling in caves beneath the surface, and steam-powered robots have taken over the Wild West. A horror scenario? No, rather the setting for SteamWorld Dig, the new 3DS eShop game from Swedish developer Image & Form. And don\u2019t worry: the robots are the good guys. And you\u2019re one of them.<\/p>\n

SteamWorld Dig is a hardcore platform mining adventure that will be released on the Nintendo 3DS eShop\u2122 in mid 2013. You dig tunnels, collect rare minerals, sell them for better equipment while taking on the terrors of the underground.<\/p>\n
