UnderMine is an exciting adventure rife with plenty of interesting characters. You never know who you'll see next, and that's just part of the fun! From a grumpy old Archmage to a sentient slime that sells you items, the game plays host to personalities both human and otherwise that will sell you items, help you dabble in alchemy, and more.
Thorium Entertainment's UnderMine is a new roguelike looking to go the distance, one where players take on the role of a peasant tasked with exploring the deep, dark, procedurally generated depths of a mysterious and monster-infested mine.
Developers Derek Johnson and Clint Tasker, the two creators behind UnderMine, hope players are up to the challenge. The two are former AAA game developers gone indie, and they have big hopes for what UnderMine could become. We recently chatted with Derek and Clint prior to UnderMine's Steam Early Access release to learn more about making the jump to indie game development, the genesis of UnderMine, being featured in Microsoft's E3 press briefing, and more.
It never feels like it from our perspective here in North America, but gamescom is the world's biggest gaming convention. Attendance averages in the few hundred thousands yearly, dwarfing E3 by multiple times. It's Euro-centricity tends to motivate publishers and developers from the surrounding area to make bigger splashes there. Between August 20th and 24th of this year, we will have out eyes and ears open for the oncoming deluge of game info pouring out of Cologne, Germany.
Fall's right around the corner, and just as sure as the leaves are going to start changing soon enough, we've got another weekly dose of the coolest Official Wikis we've got coming to Gamepedia.

The months are positively flying by. But that's okay. That just means we're getting closer and closer to November, when Death Stranding is about to debut, as well as Pokémon Sword and Shield! August has just begun, so it's time for us to kick off another month filled with fun additions to our Official Wiki catalogue. So without further ado, let's check out the newest games to receive Wikis this week. There are some pretty exciting ones, that's for sure!
Nowhere Prophet, the new card-based rogue-like RPG from Sharkbomb Games, can appear daunting from the outside. When you start your first trek to the infamous Crypt, you could be overwhelmed with all the information being thrown at you all at once. The in-game tutorial does an OK job at harnessing it all, but a little help is always useful. That's where we - and specifically, the following beginners guide - come in. Hopefully by the end of the reading, you'll have more than enough information to navigate the dangers of Soma.
Welcome one and all once again to another exciting installment of our Weekly Official Wiki Roundup! The weeks are just flying by, aren't they? We've only got just a couple of wikis for you this time, but they're two very exciting titles you don't want to miss out on. Strap in and get ready for the latest set of exciting Official Wiki reveals. I can hardly stand the tension, can you? Here we go!
Patch 11 for Fallout 76 has landed and introduced a slew of quality of life improvements, including reduced rates of spoilage, difficulty reductions for low-level characters (including higher disease resistance for level <15 characters and lower fast travel costs for <25 ones), as well as a heap of changes to power armor functionality meant to address various bugs and smooth out the experience.
If you’ve glanced at the most played games on Twitch in the past few months, you’ve likely noticed a few unfamiliar titles rising to the top of the ranks. Team Fight Tactics? Dota Underlords? What is all this stuff? In short: it’s auto chess, and it’s gaming’s newest genre.
If you actually attempted to watch a stream of one of the above games being played, chances are you became even more confused. At any given moment there’s a ton of action happening on screen at once, but no clear reason as to how or why. But worry not. Auto chess games certainly look confusing on the surface, but once you have a basic understanding of what makes the genre tick, it will all fall into place.
What's up, faithful Gamepedia readers? How have you been doing? What games have you been playing recently? That's cool! Well, we hate to have to tear you away from your favorite titles this week, but we've got another installment of your absolute favorite weekly publication here at the old site: your Weekly Official Wiki Roundup! Whether you're into demonic games or flying all over the place with dragons, we've got something special for you today. As a wise man once said, stay awhile and listen.
