The mini game in the Mining Cave
The Mining Cave is an expansion purchasable for the Secret Base. You are able to click on any wall (except that of the entrance) to start digging. It gives you access to a minigame in which you can collect various different items by digging into the wall. You have a limited amount of clicks before the wall collapses. You can mine for items as much as you like, making this a good way to get money if you are preparing for long routes or to consistently afford the Trainer in the Secret Base.

The Minigame[]
A nearly completed dig
The minigame in the Mining Cave gives you access to a lot of different items. By select either a chisel (blue) or a hammer (red), you have to unearth the items hidden underneath the soil.
The chisel provides a very small AoE, and you can get 49 clicks in if you use it exclusively, whereas the hammer provides you with a larger and stronger AoE, but only gives you 17 clicks.
