What is Coal Duty?

In this first-person horror-comedy, you work state-run mines beneath a frozen sky, alone or with up to four others online. Each shift sends you into a procedurally generated mine to fill a cart and bring your haul back. Between shifts, you return to a persistent hub, visit the workshop or smuggler, and plan an escape.

For you if...

+you like risking deeper expeditions for better rewards
+you enjoy coordinating through voice chat that creatures can hear

Not for you if...

−you want relaxed exploration without production targets
−you prefer fixed maps over newly generated layouts
