Dig It

Carve out a path with your fingertip and watch gravity do the rest — can you get the ball home without it falling into the void?

Dig It hands you a dirt-filled level with a ball sitting somewhere and a cup waiting at the bottom. Your job? Swipe away chunks of earth to create a path for the ball to roll, drop, and ricochet into that cup. It sounds simple, but the physics are surprisingly honest. Carve a steep channel and the ball picks up too much speed, overshoots the cup, and bounces off the edge into nothing. Cut a gentle slope and it might not have enough momentum to reach the goal. You'll find yourself retrying levels not because they're hard, but because each failure teaches you something small about how the terrain reacts. I remember one level that looked impossible: a tall column of dirt with the cup tucked underneath a ledge. My first instinct was to tunnel straight down, but the ball just slammed into the ledge and bounced away. After three failed attempts, I carved a curved ramp around the side, added a tiny lip at the end to bleed off speed, and watched the ball roll in perfectly. That little 'aha' moment is what keeps me coming back. The difficulty curve feels fair — early levels are almost meditative, later ones introduce moving platforms, breakable blocks, and even multiple balls you have to balance at once. Controls are dead simple: use your mouse or finger to dig. There's no timer, no score pressure, just you and the physics. It's the kind of game you open for two minutes and suddenly realize an hour has passed. If you need a break from shooters or racing games, Dig It is a perfect palate cleanser with plenty of 'one more try' pull.

Use your fingers to dig a hole and guide the ball to destination.

Dig in quick, controlled strokes instead of long drags — you'll get cleaner tunnels and fewer accidental collapses. Check the whole level before you start. Sometimes the best route isn't the obvious straight-down drop. Leave a small bump of dirt at the end of a ramp to slow the ball down so it doesn't overshoot the goal. If the ball gets stuck, widen the opening you made instead of digging a whole new path. Play with sound on. The thud of the ball landing tells you if your slope angle is too aggressive.
