No Mine Here! is a base building and management game involving keeping your operations secret from the authorities. Players have to construct and mine within a protected zone, while making sure they aren't discovered. Officials and agents will approach a player's facility and the player is tasked with making sure they don't discover their illicit activities. As players expand their underground facilities and operations, more attention will be drawn by officials, leading to increasing levels of difficulty. Players are able to purchase all manner of devious distractions, from traps to attractions to draw foes away. Once players have harvested these valuable and protected materials, they have to process them. There is a choice between developing onsite facilities at the risk of drawing more attention, or sending them abroad and dealing with the issues of getting them safely to their destination. As players dig deeper, or consume more resources, they may come across rare and valuable materials that they can sell. Alternatively, if players process these materials they may develop useful tools that can aid them in their quest for ever more cash.

Features Include:

In plain sight: operate your secret facility from right under the authorities' noses, making sure they never discover your illicit operations.

Making bank: find the best ways to manage your resources, balancing processing and export to maximise your profit.

Upsize and Expand: build the biggest, most impressive facility ever seen, aggressively protected by technology.
