"Driller Night!" is the first mission in the Windows version of LEGO Rock Raiders. It is the sole mission in the first level and is the only mission unlocked when starting a new game.[1][2]

The mission briefing states that three Rock Raiders have been teleported to a different cavern than intended due to the teleporter on the L.M.S. Explorer being damaged. The player must guide the Rock Raiders north until they find the Tool Store, then collect 5 Energy Crystals.[3]

The mission's name references the song "Thriller" by Michael Jackson. The name is a pun on the phrase "thriller night" from the song's chorus.[4]
