A downloadable Coal Hill

In this retro-inspired adventure, you play as a brave miner tasked with venturing deep into the earth to retrieve precious coal. Navigate dangerous tunnels, avoid obstacles, and descend through multiple levels of an ancient mine. Once you collect the coal at the bottom, your true challenge begins: making it back to the surface with your heavy load! The more coal you carry, the slower your ascent becomes. Will you bring the coal back to fuel the town, or will the mine’s depths keep you trapped forever?

How to Play

Getting the hang of Coal Hill is easy! Just follow these simple controls and dive into the depths:

  • B: Jump high to avoid obstacles and reach new depths
  • A: Throw your pickaxe to clear mobs in your path
  • Right/Left: Move through the tunnels—dodge, explore, and keep an eye out for coal

Be cautious, rock may be slippery and make you fall off a platform!

Coal Hill consists of 5 increasingly challenging levels, each requiring you to descend and return safely before progressing to the next. Your journey begins by descending to the first level to retrieve coal and then making your way back up. With each level completed, you unlock access to a deeper part of the mine. This pattern continues until you reach the fifth and final level, where the richest coal awaits. Watch out for mobs along the way—you can dodge them or take them down with your trusty pickaxe!

Master these moves to become the ultimate miner!
