🎯 Goal: Dig as deep as you can! Your score is based on how far you descend.

🃏 Cards: Collect cards by digging through dirt. When you have 5 cards, build poker hands and press SPACE to submit for points and energy.

⚡ Energy: Every dig costs energy. Submit hands to restore energy. Eat mushrooms for +20⚡. If you run out, submit a hand to survive!

⛏️ Digging: Dirt takes more energy to dig the deeper you go. Rocks take more hits to break at greater depths.

💎 Gems: Find gems in chests. They give bonuses to your poker hands (chips × multiplier).

🦇 Bats: Watch out! Bats steal your cards. Buy Bat Spray to protect yourself.

🏆 Decks: Complete a full 52-card collection for +25 max energy!
