🎮 Basic Controls
Once you click to start, your claw will continuously swing back and forth like a pendulum. When the claw is perfectly aligned with a piece of treasure, click the screen to launch it straight down. If it hits an item, it grabs it and reels it in. If it misses, it will retract once it hits the edge of the screen.
-
Claw Mechanics: You can only fire the claw again after it has fully returned to the top. The speed at which it reels in depends on the weight of the object grabbed—heavier items take painfully long to reel in!
-
Time Attack: The clock starts ticking immediately. You must clear out all the loot in the mine as quickly as humanly possible.
💎 Treasures & Trash
The mine isn't just full of riches; it's littered with junk, too. If you accidentally hook a piece of trash, you have no choice but to wait for the claw to slowly reel it all the way in before you can try again.
-
Treasures: Gold nuggets and gems are your primary targets. Gold comes in different sizes; while giant gold blocks are easy targets, they are incredibly heavy and slow to pull up. Gems (like diamonds and rubies) are tiny but extremely lightweight, meaning they reel in lightning-fast!
-
Trash: Rocks, bones, and glass bottles are worthless junk. Rocks come in different sizes, and all trash severely slows down your reel-in speed—taking even longer than a small piece of gold!
💪 Power-Ups
You can occasionally fish up randomly spawning "Strength" power-ups from the mine. These are stored in your inventory. You can hold a maximum of 2 at a time. Activating this power-up instantly doubles the reeling speed of your claw for your next grab!
