Mining is obviously a tough and thankless task.

Unless you have a steam-powered tram that powers through solid rock and enables you to dodge the attentions of mutated worms, giant swirling walls of fire, and pools of lava, that is.

That's the idea behind Gold Diggers, a new game from Gamistry that will surface on the UK and US App Stores at midnight tonight.

With its combination of gorgeous cartoon visuals and simple one-finger gameplay, Gold Diggers shouldn't have trouble finding an audience.

At its core, by the way, Gold Diggers is all about getting as far down into the earth as you can.

Runs are split into different chunks. Sometimes, you'll be leaping across mine cart tracks grabbing nuggets. At other times, you'll have to weave your way through a thin spit of rock bordered by deadly magma.

There are missions to complete and loads of upgrades and boosts to buy with the gold you collect in Gold Diggers.

Nice bite-sized gameplay and Game Center achievements round off this pretty packed package.

Gold Diggers will be available in the UK and US App Stores from midnight tonight as a Universal app. It won't cost you a penny to pick it up.
