The thing is I don't remember the name of the game but I do remember some of the gameplay. The game is about gnomes as far as I can remember. It starts on the surface and you slowly start burrowing underground. The little gnomes dig tunnels, caves, build structures, farm mushrooms (for food), raise rodents (to ride on). I believe the whole game is on the same map. The gnomes level up in the things they do such as cooking, digging, farming, combat. The game is about ten years old probably
