Steamworld Dig is basically a prototype, almost more of a flash game. It does get more interesting as you go on but for the most part it’s a pretty easy romp that takes 2-4 hours to complete.

Steamworld Dig 2 is a fully-fledged Metroidvania / Platformer which happens to also have some digging elements like the first game. Everything is bespoke - no more procedural generation of any terrain or challenges - all of the new abilities are tons of fun, and the progression curve behind finding those abilities is immensely satisfying. It’ll take around 10 hours to complete, and maybe as many as 15 to find everything.

Great info, thanks. I might just buy and play the second without finishing the first. I’ve been looking forward to trying it on Switch.
