How to Play Motherload

Digging Deep into the Earth

Your goal is to mine valuable resources, transport them to the processing plant, and sell them for profit.

Refuel and Sell Your Findings

At the beginning, your mining vehicle has limited range, so you will need to surface regularly to refuel and sell the minerals you\'ve collected.

Enhance Your Equipment

As you progress, you can use the money you earn to buy upgrades for your vehicle. These include enhancements to your fuel tank, drill, engine, cargo hold, hull, and radiator. These upgrades are available at the junk shop. Nearby, you\'ll find the emendation station where you can repair your hull and purchase one-off items like spare fuel tanks and explosives.

Discover Rare Resources and Artifacts

Once you\'ve upgraded your vehicle, you\'ll be able to explore deeper into the earth, unearthing rarer and more valuable minerals like platinum and emeralds. At around -1000 feet, you will also uncover religious artifacts that instantly reward you with $50,000.
