How the board works

A pickaxe opens one cell of a 6×5 board — 30 cells in all. You may only dig next to a cell already opened, and obstacles do not conduct. One of the cells hides the stairs: find them and you drop a floor.

The bomb is luck, not a loss: it blows the whole board open, you take the rewards from every cell of the floor and the stairs are right there.

Treasure Hunt Carbon Pickaxe — one of these per digEarth Vein Crystal — the shop currency

Auto-dig unlocks after 10 digs. The floor cycle is 300 long, after which the layouts repeat. One event cycle runs 10 days.

Digs in total570

570 digs at roughly 9.3 per floor reach floor 62, which collects 3 of the 15 depth rewards.The first one missed sits on floor 70.

The same run banks about 13,064 crystals (Earth Vein Crystal) — against a top shop slot priced at 12,000.Currency is not what stops you, though: the shallowest locked slot asks for floor 100.

Depth calculator

Build a wish list — we work out how many digs it takes over 10 days and what topping up on Treasure Hunt Carbon Pickaxe costs.

The list is empty — pick a prize and press Add.

Expectation math: a floor costs the average number of digs needed to turn up the stairs, and a cell pays the average of its pool. A real run lands either side of that. Crystals are counted as spent on the selected prize only.

What the cells hold

A floor's layout comes from its archetype, and the 300-floor cycle deals them in a fixed order. Shares are per dig; tap a row to open the reward pool.

Every 10th floor is a prize floor: it hides a guaranteed grand prize, but the stairs turn up three times more rarely, so it costs ~13.5 digs against ~9.04 on an ordinary one. If you do not want the prize, take the stairs the moment you find them.

Prize-floor rewards

Every 10th floor of the 300-floor cycle hides a special cell with a big prize. There are 2 kinds of it, and which one you get follows the floor number.

Depth rewards

One-off rewards for reaching a floor. The ladder runs to floor 1000, even though the layouts themselves repeat every 300 floors.

Limited-time offers: where they drop

The pop-up bundles are not random: each sits in a gift cell on its own floor. A 300-floor cycle holds 14 of them, then the floors repeat. A window lasts 120 min and sells once — buy it and it is gone.

The cell is one of thirty on its floor, so the ladder can end the floor before you dig it out. A free run usually stops around floor 62. The limit is the ceiling on purchases over a run, but what usually binds is the number of windows you meet: one window, one purchase.

Packs

Best rate: $0.99 → 20 pickaxes, or $0.05 each.Worst is $99.99 → 400 pickaxes at $0.25 each — the bigger the purchase, the worse the rate.
