About the game
À La Mine is a turn-based strategy game designed for 3 to 6 players, where dwarves compete for control of mining operations. Dominate the mine by winning auctions or using dynamite to eliminate your opponents in this ruthless struggle!
Turn-based competitive strategy designed for 3 to 6 players
Strong player interaction and constant tension
Asymmetrical dynamics that evolve throughout the game
Two distinct phases with radically different objectives
Every decision influences not only your position, but also the overall balance of the game.
À La Mine offers a Friend Pass system that allows you to join a game without owning it.

The Friend Pass lets you discover À La Mine and play with friends while reserving full progression and features for players who own the game.
First Phase – Build Your Network
During the first phase, you and your friends share the same goal: to acquire the largest connected set of territories.
Through auctions and confrontations, you must:
Expand your holdings
Block your opponents
Set up your position for the next phase
This phase lays the groundwork for the balance of power to come.
Second Phase – Owners vs. Workers
Once the first phase is over, the game changes. Depending on your situation, you take on a new role:
The Owners
If you control enough connected territories, you become an owner.
Your goal is clear:
Slow down the progress of other owners
Contain the actions of the workers’ union
And most importantly, be the first to connect 6 territories to achieve a monopoly
The Exploited
If you don’t control enough connected territories, you become an exploited. The exploited form a union and play collectively against the owners.
Their goal is to:
Sabotage the mine
Hinder the expansion of the owners
Prevent anyone from achieving a monopoly
The game then becomes a tense confrontation between individual interests and collective action.
À La Mine is neither a solo game nor a duel. It is designed to fully leverage the group dynamics found in board games: temporary alliances, collective opposition, tension, and betrayal.
Gather 3 to 6 players, enter the mine, and see who will come out on top!
