In Rock and Stone , you are a dwarf on a mission to get rich! While you'll be mining rocks and collecting valuable loot, your true fortune is made in the player-driven market. You'll need to decide whether to sell the items you find to other players or use them to speed up your own mining. With no pay-to-win in-game purchases, your success depends entirely on your gear, luck, and determination.

Gameplay

Rock and Stone is a game that works for you, even when you're not playing. You will mine rocks in the background , automatically gathering Steam items. You can either sell these items on the market for a profit or open them for new gear and gold. You can occasionally click to use a limited stamina reserve to speed up mining manually. You can also purchase in-game buffs with gold you find, giving you temporary boosts. The stronger your gear, the faster you can mine and the better your chances of finding rare treasures.

Looting & Gear

Items come in five rarities: Common , Uncommon , Rare , Epic , and Legendary. Each rarity provides stronger stats and bigger bonuses. There are 11 stats that affect your mining, including:

• Magic find

• Damage, crit chance and crit damage multiplier

• Experience

• Buff and gold chance

• Buff duration and gold amount

• Stamina regeneration

• Auto-mining speed

You can equip various types of gear, such as rocks , pickaxes , and pickaxe mods , to improve these stats and become an even more effective miner.

Buffs & Gold

While mining, you have a chance to find gold and  temporary buffs. You can also buy longer-lasting buffs with gold at any time. There are four types of buffs that can give you a boost, including:

• Increased damage

• More experience

• Faster auto-mining

• Faster stamina regeneration

Reforge

Reforge functionality allows you to combine 12 items of the same rarity into one new item of the next higher rarity Look out for secret recipes that don't require all 12 items! A gold cost , which varies based on the item rarity, is associated with each reforge. You can enable Reforge mode using the button in your in-game inventory. Type of the output item is affected by the distribution of the input items types.

Artifacts

Artifacts are collectible items that grant stat bonuses to your character as long as they remain in your Steam inventory. They’re passive, and persistent. Each artifact provides fixed bonuses. Bonuses are automatically applied when the artifact is in your Steam inventory—no need to convert them to game items, equip or activate. Artifacts come in multiple rarities , just like other in-game items. The higher the rarity, the stronger and more numerous the bonuses.
