Hydroneer is a sandbox computer game by the British developer foulball hangover. In the game you can build up your own mining and search for gold and various other resources. The lumps made of gold, silver or cloutium as well as gemstones and crystals can be sold against the “Hydro coins” currency. After starting with a shovel and gold washing pan at the beginning, you can gradually get vehicles and machines with money that make the operation more efficient. [first]

At the beginning you start with a shovel, bucket, washing pan, brush and a smaller property. With the help of the equipment you can dig out cloutium, gold, iron ore, crystals and rubies, emeralds and sapphires. These can be sold at dealers or also processed in the later course of the game. After buying forge equipment, the raw materials can be forged to sword, ax, dagger, struggle or a necklace. For dealers, other equipment such as B. conveyor belts, sorting systems, drills are bought, but there are also opportunities to build and beautify your house.

The central game content is to expand and improve your own production and extension to other abrasions.
