A Game About Digging A Hole is a minimalist indie game developed by Kekdot. As the title suggests, it focuses entirely on the act of digging a single, seemingly endless hole. With no enemies, objectives, or complex mechanics, the game invites players into a meditative and oddly satisfying experience centered around persistence, curiosity, and interpretation. It’s not about reaching an end — it’s about the act itself.
