Ad Spam! Earning cash is painfully slow, so a shortcut to watch an ad is offered. Want to check the map? Watch an ad. Want to save your game? Watch an ad. Want to go back to see a previous screen and hit the back button? Kicks you out of the app and you've lost all progress since your last manual save.

My experience was enjoyable but it seemed to be a bit and dry I have no problem playing game like that for the upgrades eventually did stop there were no extremely awesome stuff you cannot teleport back and forth between The Mineshaft in your place which would be extremely interesting if not awesome to add to the game and the difficulty was for the beginning level was set relatively low opening up to the very bottom I did not find the into the beginning at all which makes it borning

I just started to play this game and it is sooo addicting. The ads are placed nicely. My only tiny issue is that my mine changed when I saved the game. Also I don't like that it don't autosave BUT it might be a good thing. I just don't see it yet. So far the Pros out way the Cons. Great game.

Fantastic game better than every other mining game(excluding motherload, that game beats all), I think some things should be changed though. Ladders can be used for everything, so why have support pillars or bridges? Maybe make rocks destroy ladders? Also I wish you could destroy items you put down(no longer want a bridge there).

just started playing. so far, fun Problem why can't I resume the game i started? little help/found Save Game by accident. Really? Not on the main screen. Really? rework your menu options, step it up. I stand by my review. Why do I have to watch a video in order to save my progress? If you want money, just ask. The game is fun. Maybe you would get it.

I play this on my phone and theres a critical bug where you tap the pause button, the map button, and exit the map really fast and it teleports you to somewhere random and sometimes i glitch through the limit and theres just nothing but void which is sorta creepy and weird or sometimes i teleport so high up that i fall to the ground and die. The ads are not a problem since you can go offline, please add missions, elevators, more music, tnt or bombs, and offline earnings. These would really gr8

Incredible waste of time. I spent hours digging through a mine of nearly 30,000 squares, looking for this massive diamond the game kept teasing. I finally found it- a big beautiful thing, 2×2 squares big, deep in the mine. And what was it worth? Was it worth twice the total amount of money I had earned up to that point? This is the elusive jackpot I had been warned about... so maybe worth 10x more? No. Compared to the time I spent searching, I should have just kicked myself in the dick instead.

Not bad, but not perfect. My only real complaint is the save game system. It doesn't seem to work like it should. When loading a save, I am placed randomly on the map instead of where I was when saving. Everything I collected is lost and nothing I've spent (ladders, supports, etc) since last saving is returned to me. The auto save is not turned on by default once unlocked and saves at seemingly random times.

This have is perfect! I absolutely love it! To developer explained how I could get rid of the ads and this game is now absolutely perfect! I would love to see more of these games! Old Review: I'd pay $10 or $20 simply to have an ad free experience on this game. I don't mind watching ads to earn money but the amount of ads on here is frustrating. Only other change of I would suggest is to make it where you can touch where you want the Miner to go rather than rely on the odd & awkward controls.

LOVE this game. It's just difficult in the beginning to keep me coming back. Once you figure out the ways you can avoid getting stuck or dying you can get deep in the mine. Tip: SAVE YOUR GAMES REGULARLY! And if you do need to spend real money, its SUPER cheap. Like I don't have an issue spending .99 for coins! Also, as you progress, you can get upgrades and the issues others talked about are negated. Like teleporters to get out of the mine.

Basic mining game. The use of ladders is pretty cool, I didnt have to use a support before I lost interest. You have 10 spaces for inventory and from what I saw there was no upgrade for that, there was a light radius upgrade. Character could use a different animation for climbing instead of just walking in place. The fact that there is an ad everytime you open the menu is ridiculous. I would consider paying to remove them but there is not enough content for me to want to play.

This could be an ok game but has some significantly annoying design flaws. Foremost is that an ad shows when pausing and the map is on the pause menu. Second, limited or no autosave... and save is on the pause menu. Also, I can imagine getting easily stuck without proper ladder and support management. Animations are limited and, strangely, collision detection is not 100%. Honestly, his feels like an incomplete game. Put ladder and support beam buttons on the main display, rmv ad, add story.

It's a good game but has some issues. 1: you CANNOT remove bridges/signs/ladders. Once placed you have to completely erase all your progress to get rid of just one. 2: M o v i n g. If you just dug down and need to get back up, you can use ladders! But it takes like 3 years to keep going to the menu just to place one, climb it and repeat 50 times. It is so annoying just to go back to the surface, and don't get me STARTED on going down already placed ladders.

Once I got used to finicky controls. Like the simplicity Edit 2022: Hadn't played since replacing my phone a few years back. Is there a way to restore purchases? Would like to play again, but don't want to pay twice for the same thing. Also, now I can't find the achievements. The save system is still buggy. It will restore from a save in the middle of unmined blocks, undoing the work but leaving me stranded. I have turned OFF autosave, and now only save when I'm safely in town.

Good bones, needs some work. The biggest bummer is the game doesn't autosave! What game in 2023 needs to be manually saved!? As for features, I mostly enjoy it, but I wish you could select an item in your hand to place it without going into your bag everytime. It'd be good if you could buy a hammer to destroy items you accidently placed or no longer need. And I would love it if you could go into your tent and buy furniture for it to decorate. Lots of potential, but that's all it is right now

Fun game. Only thing I would like is a quick access ladder button and an ability to fast travel back down to your teleport spots. If you accidentally place a ladder or something it's easy enough to loop around it. I've gotten to the bottom, I was hoping for something more valuable than platinum, what's the goal here?

It's a simple, yet very addictive game. This is easily one of my favorite games. Well done. Update: This used to be one of my favorite games, years ago, and I was coming back to play again. However, now there's an ad every single time you open the menu to check your map or save, which is extremely annoying and unnecessary, as you already have ads for both the player and yourself to earn $. Very disappointing.

A message pops up asking if you'd like to "load your last save" if you select either yes or no the game will take you back to the surface and it'll be back to when you opened the game.. So all the progress you just did prior to that message is now lost or reset.. I uninstalled after this happened twice, no thank you... Maybe the message should ask the player "would you like to save your game", why would I want to load a save when I'm busy mining at the bottom of the map? Was once a great game 😢

Amazing game. I played years ago and re-downloaded and still enjoyed the experience. The save doesn't always put you in the right spot. I had to restart because it had me free falling at one point. Besides that, I love the game. I wish it had more to it than just finishing the map. Something more challenging

I love it!!! I played this year's ago and found it again addictive playing for hours! I wish there was more purpose, though. It says we are digging to find the big diamond, but I haven't heard of anyone getting it, maybe adding bug artifacts worth millions throughout or finding the magnum crystal jewel. Just something instead of just mining to mine because what would be the point. Besides that, it's awesome, especially when you get enough money to auto save.
