How we pick them
We compare the tags the Steam community gives each game with our own classification: what you do (action, story, building…), the difficulty, how long sessions last and whether you play alone or with others. Nobody pays to appear.
About Hole Is Mine
An active incremental: you head down a hole with a drill and fling your Mini'Ohs at the rock so they mine for you. Each expedition is on a timer; whatever you extract stays with you, and you spend it on upgrading the village and kitting out the Mini'Ohs.
