Shovel Knight Dig Guide Shovel Knight Dig is a rogue-lite platformer where you dig deep into a shifting well to recover your stolen bag from Drill Knight. Unlike previous entries, this adventure focuses on downward movement and randomized level generation. Core Gameplay Mechanics

: While falling, Shovel Knight automatically performs a Shovel Drop. Use this to bounce on enemies, hazards, and objects to stay airborne or deal damage.

: Collecting all three Cogs in a stage grants a choice between health restoration or a gem bonus. Collecting all 9 cogs in a world provides even greater rewards. Permanent Upgrades & Unlocks

Progress is measured by what you bring back to the surface after a run.

: Find Master Argus's grave on the far left of the surface. Complete his challenges to unlock new techniques like the Whip Slash (shovel drop 5 enemies without touching ground) and Cyclone Slash (dig 100 times in a row).

: Your primary attack for clearing dirt and defeating enemies. Hold a direction while slashing to scoot in that direction mid-air.

: If you linger too long in a stage, the Omega Saw will appear to chase you down. Move quickly to stay ahead of it, but don't let panic lead you into spikes.

: Purchase these from the shop for 5,000 gems to open Relic Doors in the well. Clearing these challenges permanently adds new Relics to the item pool.
