Mining Up

You wake up, confused. It’s pitch black except for a single torch in your hand. You look up, and what you see only adds to your confusion. Above you is a wall of stone, and you know you are deep underground. Looking around on the ground, you find a wooden pickaxe. Soon, you realize that the only thing you can do is start digging.

Merge pickaxes, collect resources, and mine straight up!
