Drill Rift

Development
By Rob from the Shack
Drill Rift is a turn-based colony sim where you manage a dwarven mining outpost, upgrade tech, roll dice events & risk awakening what lies below.

Drill Rift is a turn-based colony sim where you manage a dwarven mining operation deep beneath the mountain. Upgrade machinery, research new tech, and keep your crew motivated while balancing resources and upgrades.

But beware — drill too far and you may awaken something that should never be disturbed.

Blending strategic base-building with dice-roll mechanics inspired by Dungeons & Dragons, Drill Rift combines management depth with unpredictable, story-driven events. Each choice matters as you dig deeper into both the mine and the mystery below.

Launching Q4 2025 on Steam, with a public demo arriving September 20 ahead of Steam Next Fest.
