Mine drawing
Mine drawing drops you into the boots of a subterranean explorer whose only tool is a thoughtful line. The caverns ahead are strewn with concealed dangers, and your job is to trace a path that avoids them all. Each level presents a fresh puzzle where the terrain shifts and the hazards grow more cunning, demanding careful observation before you commit your route to the ground. The twist lies in your limited drawing supply—every stroke you make consumes precious ink, so you cannot simply scribble a winding trail and hope for the best. Instead, you must balance distance against safety, sometimes taking a longer, secure way rather than a short, deadly dash. Success comes from patience, spatial reasoning, and a steady hand, making each completed descent a small triumph of planning over peril.

What is Mine drawing
Guide a miner to safety by sketching a path through dangerous tunnels, avoiding hidden explosives. Simple to pick up, but the real challenge is in drawing the perfect escape route.
How to Play
Click or drag to draw a line that your miner will follow, steering clear of mines scattered along the way. Keep an eye on your ink meter, as running out forces you to rely on the path you've already laid.
Tips for Playing
- Always scout the tunnel layout before you start drawing to spot potential mine clusters.
- Reserve your ink for longer, safer detours rather than risky shortcuts.
- If you see a gap between mines, use it—sometimes the smallest clearance is the safest passage.
- Replay earlier levels to learn mine patterns and apply that knowledge to trickier ones.
- When ink is low, backtracking is impossible, so plan your final stretch in advance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if my miner touches a mine?
The miner gets caught in an explosion, and you must restart the level. You can try again without penalty, so experiment freely.
Can I draw multiple paths at once?
No, you draw one continuous path at a time. Once you complete the line, the miner starts moving, and you can't alter it mid-way.
Is there a limit to how long my drawn path can be?
Yes, you have a limited amount of ink. Plan your route to reach the exit without running dry, or you'll be stuck short of your goal.
How do I know where mines are hidden?
Mines appear as small, dark objects embedded in the terrain. They can be camouflaged, so inspect the ground carefully before drawing.
Can I skip a level if it's too hard?
No, levels must be completed in order. However, you can replay any earlier level as often as you like to practice your skills.
