Steam is offering a big discount on UnderMine, an action-adventure roguelike title that's said to have a "bit of RPG tossed in." The game generally costs $19.99 when there's no sale in place, but thanks to this deal, it's available at $1.99, which is a new all-time low price. This discounted price will remain active until July 29, 2025.
Developed by Thorium, UnderMine was first released in August 2020 on PC and Xbox. The developers later brought it to Switch, PlayStation 4, Linux, and macOS in early 2021. Since its release on Steam, the game has received over 8,500 player reviews, and 91% of them are positive.
Per players who have tried the game, UnderMine is a notable entry in the indie gaming scene, and it's regarded as a replayable dungeon-crawler with a progression loop. Some even noted that the game features refined roguelite mechanics and the gameplay is quite enjoyable.
As for the premise, UnderMine is set in a kingdom that's plagued by mysterious earthquakes. Players take the role of a humble peasant who is tasked to investigate the source of the tremors. As they venture through the mine, they find themselves against deadly enemies, traps, and a slew of secrets.
Another notable aspect of the game is that each of the peasants has a sense of humor, which blends well with the whimsical story. UnderMine comes with the Steam Deck Verified rating, meaning that it will run well on most well-configured gaming handhelds and PCs (Beelink GTi14 curr. $978.99 on Amazon).
