About this gameFull description from Steam
Dataminers is a turn-based logic-adventure in which you crack data towers of evil corporations. Use numbers to locate the datamines around you and hack them to clear a path. The tower is well guarded! Be careful not to set off the alarm and every move counts! Reach the top of the tower and hack their mainframe before the firewall catches up on you! Challenge yourself in a variety of game modes with a ton of difficulty settings, level progression and unlockables. GAME MODES Complete procedurally generated missions within strategic campaigns. Forge paths through increasingly complex and challenging enemy infrastructures as you evade their security with puzzle-solving skills, mental agility and a tonne of varied items and upgrades. Race against the clock to defuse all mines and beat your personal best times. One wrong move and it's all over! Test your endurance and immerse yourself in worlds inspired by iconic science fiction movies. How long can you survive? Unwind as you play in tranquil environments where mistakes have no consequences. Ever played Minesweeper? No? Don't worry, you'll learn all the gameplay mechanics in our safeguarded Training Center and be ready to climb in no time. Yes? You're already ahead of the game, but with campaign missions, enemy defences, unlockable items and more, Dataminers takes Minesweeper beyond the desktop!
