Deepworld Online Client

Exploring has always been one of the most attractive things in open-world games. Not knowing what you’re going to find, friend of foe, is something that keeps you pushing forward until you either die or stumble onto something great.

Deepworld is a 2D game that offer you a rather consistent dose of that thirst for exploration. It’s a steampunk inspired adventure mining game in which you get to explore the seemingly never-ending depths of a fictitious world.

In Deepworld there are a lot of things your character can do but he will mostly be digging his little binary heart out. After completing the intro tutorial that familiarizes you with the core mechanics of the game, you’re ready to firmly grip your pickaxe and start exploring.

There are several worlds to choose from and to get to any of them you use teleportation pads. Once there, you can swing at the ground and start digging a path. Crafting is a big part of the game and you can create all sorts of things, from new digging tools to Tesla weapons to stone gargoyles to furniture, and each of them requires certain materials.

Weapons for example need rare materials and for this you have to dig deep into the underground. Since Deepworld is an online multiplayer game, you will encounter plenty of caverns and tunnels that have been dug up by other players. This is both a blessing and unfortunate as it will be harder for you to find rarer resources. For that reason you will have to deviate from their paths and because there is no detailed minimap, you can easily get lost (but that’s the reality of exploring, which does add to the fun of it all).

Deepworld provides extensive crafting possibilities. You can fabricate items from categories such as Construction, Architecture, Metallurgy, Furniture, Decoration, Armaments, Industrial, Opulence and more. With these you can build both small and gigantic houses or intricate mazes and challenge other players to find their way out.

The variety and possibilities make the game all that much more fun. You do however need to take into account that what you build can be destroyed by other players if you don’t have a ‘Protector’ or more around your buildings.

On a closing note, for fans of exploration games with a 2D setting, Deepworld is a must try. It has plenty of things to do, enemies to fight underground and a lot to discover.
