Mole Maiden

In Mole Maiden, players step into the boots of Penny Copper, a 14-year-old girl with a big dream: to become the next champion of the Burrow League, a WWE-style underground fighting tournament. To qualify, she must leave home and fight the four larger-than-life Burrow League Captains. Along the way, she journeys through the R&D Mine, finds new abilities, upgrades her trusty drills, and faces off against opponents in explosive one-on-one battles.

  • Birth of a New Genre: A Bossavania that combines the strategic, puzzle-like boss fights of classic titles like Punch-Out!! with the freedom and exploration of a metroidvania.
  • An Underdog Story: Dive into a heartfelt narrative about a young girl chasing her dream against impossible odds, set against the backdrop of a unique underground society shaped by a post-apocalyptic ice age.
  • Unforgettable Boss Battles: Face off against 13 unique bosses, each with their own fighting style and personality.
  • Distinctive Art and Design: Explore eight explorable areas brought to life with beautiful hand-drawn pixel graphics inspired by manga, comic books, and the spectacle of professional wrestling.
  • Fluid Combat and Movement: Burrow through the ground with a 360-degree drill mechanic, explore, and find new abilities and upgrades.
  • Highly Replayable: Multiple routes, speedrunning potential, and challenging post-game content ensure every journey through the R&D Mine is a new adventure.
  • A Bangin' Soundtrack: Experience the underground world with a dynamic soundtrack by TNH Nebula Music.
