The Excavation Project is a short digging game by Basilium. Begin by scraping through a small patch of ground, sell the stones you uncover, and improve your equipment to reach deeper layers and hidden gems. The official page presents excavation automation as part of the progression.
Built with Unity, the game is designed for runs of roughly 15–30 minutes. There is no save system, so a run needs to be completed in one session.
How to Play
Use your current tool to dig, collect stones, and sell them. Reinvest in better tools and excavation upgrades, then work deeper into the patch of land.
