  • PURELY CASH GRAB GAME

    Whenever I play a game I like to be able to get all achievements but sadly they make it impossible if you don’t spend a bunch of money, like serious money going into the hundreds. The special events are impossible to achieve without spending serious money as well as the islands where you gotta forge keys. To get all 3 medals, you have to complete the island within a day. After seeing if this was possible with playing normal, it is not. I used thousands of in game cash to get token boosts and everything. During the 24 hours trying to achieve the final medal I had used over 20x1hr x2, 5x5min x50, 1hr x50, 2x1hr x20, 2x1hr x100, 2x5min x100, 13x5min x10 and 4x1hr x10 and still hardly put a dent in getting the achievement. The game is completely rigged so if you want to get the achievements you have to pay a lot of money, possibly thousands of real dollars. It’s total bull to do this in a game. I highly suggest you select one of the better idle games out there because there are thousands of better ones. They do not keep customer in mind and only want your money so they also shove offers down your throat and prominently show them as well which is annoying. If you think spending the couple bucks to get the always x2 will help, it won’t. This game doesn’t want you to succeed or care if you enjoy it, they are a scam.

    Hi! Our miners are recharging their batteries right now 🔋 with some holiday season time off. So if you can share your feedback with us about why you only gave the game 1 star, we'd love to get a direct message to community@idleminertycoon.com so we can see how the game could be improved.
  • Great game/ads crash & ruin it all.

    This game is great, it deserves a 6th star. However, the ads freeze halfway or often right at the end leaving a blank frozen screen. You’re then forced to close & reopen the game, if you’re lucky it’s not frozen, just so you can go through it all again if you want to double your income at load up. If you skip you lose the bonus. If you select to watch the ad, you risk another waste of time just to lose the bonus anyway. It’s a lose/lose either way. Doesn’t happen all the time but more than often enough to frustrate you & really kills the desire to even play the game any longer. Really hope it’s figured out. I don’t mind the ad watching scheme, when it works properly. IOS 14.7.1 on IP-7plus. (Upgrading soon) Will compare again then & re-rate with 5th star.

    Update: seems like it’s actually gotten worse since typing my review.
    Ad after ad freezes & never allows you to close it & return to the game.

  • Cool game!

    I love this game, ads are optional and it’s easy but still a bit of a fun challenge! Super cute characters too! I love economy games like this one and it’s the perfect game for me, calming music helps my anxiety but I never new that this upbeat music in the game could help it too! This doesn’t require much skill but it’s still a cool game! One more thing I love about this game is that there’s no in appropriate content so it’s great for kids! All ages can play anyways! I love this game and I will continue to buy your games! Thank you! Edit: Oh wow! I just started this game and I read some of the reviews, I never knew there were legendary gifts! This game is full of surprises! I’ll keep updating on my experience! Thanks!
    Edit: Another update! The game keeps playing when I’m offline so I don’t even have to be in the game to earn profits! So cool! I’ll keep sharing! Thank you guys!

  • Great game ruined by Ads

    This was a great game I played everyday. I enjoyed the challenge of trying to complete the mines especially the special event mines where you gain lots of cash and upgrades but you have a limited time to do it. The only way to complete these mines is by watching ads in order to increase the amount of gems you are collecting. While the ads are kind of a pain, I would sit every night and let the ads run to make sure I was collecting the most gems while idle. Then a few months ago they started running ads that have multiple parts. It takes 3 to 5 seconds to load the timer then the ad runs for 10 to 15 seconds and you have to hit next to continue watching the ad. You have to do that usually 4 times to gain the upgrade. It has taken all the fun out of the game. Letting an ad run its course is one thing, especially if I was doing something else and put the iPad down for a minute. But to have to click next multiple times means I can’t put it down. You can get rid of the ads but it costs almost 15 bucks to do it. Now I might play once a week or so and usually after 2 or 3 ads I quit. Please get rid of the multiple segmented ads so this can be a fun time wasting game again. That’s why only 2 stars. Even with the regular ads it was a 5 star game.

    We're really sorry you're not happy with our ads. We've tried to make them optional with a small reward for watching one. How would you like to see our ads run instead? If you can give us any feedback at community@idleminertycoon.com it would really help us out!
  • Too many VERY long ads to progress in game

    I have enjoyed this game, I really have. But after playing for several months I have gotten to a point where if I don’t “boost” production, the game goes nowhere. So I’m stuck watching ads. I often play at night when my partner is asleep and the white background ads are VERY bright and you have to click “next” four (yes, I said 4) times every 13-14 seconds to clear them. So it is basically a full minute ad. Ads should be 30 seconds MAX with an option to skip after 5-10 seconds. I then come read reviews and find that other reviewers have complained about way too many long ads for YEARS. Which tells me you’re not listening to your customer base. There has to be a balance between making money and keeping your customers happy. I can’t say I’ll play much longer if the ad scheme doesn’t change FAST. And because you’ve ignored your reviewers for years, I don’t have much hope. No one wants to play a game where over half of the active time playing that game is watching ads that don’t pertain to me. I don’t have metastatic breast cancer or ulcerative colitis. I don’t listen to podcasts, I play games. Decent games. The white background ads have GOT to go. I’m actually relieved when the ads don’t work and I watch the digging man for 30 seconds to get the boost. That’s really sad. I’m bummed because I really enjoyed this game for about the first 2 months.

  • Crashed and Lost it all…

    I’ve been playing this game for nearly two years. I hate how long it takes to earn enough coin to progress especially as the levels increase, but I was hooked and was dedicated to finishing starter island. I leave the game open earning coin overnight and sometimes during the day with my phone on the charger. Last night the game crashed and would not reopen this morning. The upgrade today did not fix the issue. I tried reinstalling the game today but when it reopened I had lost everything and it started from scratch. I had only a few more levels to go on each mine on starter island (had 25 of 30 levels maxed on each of the five starter island mines) and had several other islands well underway. I had over 10,000 hours of run time and it’s probably responsible for ruining my iPhone battery. All of this to lose all my progress overnight. I can’t recommend getting hooked on this game like I did.

  • It’s got problems

    Guys I played this game for a long time and there’s so many ads. Not just like Papa bad that you need to click that. But there is a lot of ads when you’re like trying to get a chair store purchasing something and it’s like very annoying. I also don’t like it because you don’t earn a lot of money and money is a main thing in this game. You earn like a little bit of money and to buy a new island it’s like so much I can’t even tell you how much it is. It was also very annoying when I would try to get on and say it for my expectations or something sorry one more minute I am resting but then it won’t do it is an error and I can’t contact anybody and I’m really annoyed by that I would give this more stars if they could fix all these little things and everything is too much money so I don’t think it’s a great app I mean I suggest you could get any other app like Clash Royale or Among Us I really suggest those apps this app is good if it could do all the things I’m asking it to do I am really disappointed with the way it turned out. I’m not gonna make you sit here and listen to me complain so that’s it and I suggest you go tonight as it’s really fun.

    Hey there. Thanks for your review and we are sorry that you are not a fan of the ads in the game. It is almost entirely possible to play without ads if you do not boost your mines or double your Idle Cash. Let us know if you have more feedback to share regarding these ads: community@idleminertycoon.com
  • Really great game :)

    I had originally downloaded the app from an interactive ad on another game, and expected it to be like every other game that advertises: filled with tons of ads!! I was pleasantly surprised when I found that the ads in this game are completely optional! While you can watch ads to speed up your income, you do not have to, and it’s also very easy to save up Super Cash to buy boosts in the shop :) It’s exactly what I was looking for in an idle game, so props to the developers! It’s easy to go to this game, upgrade a few things, and come back an hour later to having much more income to work with! I’ve only just gotten to the Dawn Continent, but if you check the game even once a day it is fairly easy to make progress :) I have yet to spend any money on this game and am still very happy with how I’ve been progressing!! Additionally, it doesn’t drain battery fast either, which I’ve found to be a downside to other games like this. I’d highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for an idle tycoon game, it’s not ad-reliant at all and is still very fun :)

  • Moms this is epic game let your child download it

    So this is a game that goes on pretty far until bedrock! You can upgrade your mine that goes down. This is not only one mine it goes deeper deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper!!! Well... not pretty far down at all! Press the World button to unlock a new world if you have enough coins or you can get one for free but there is a time limit. Say there’s a new world that the time limit four 2d 7h 45m if it all goes to zero you might have to wait a little bit for another world to take it place or it might don’t haft to wait! You can share it to Twitter and Facebook! I’m telling you this game is mystical! If you put one game that you think is mythical and put another mythical Game that you think is mythical on top of another. pause for a second do you know how to delete games? Keep Holding on the game and move it around and do everything I just told you and you can also name the Pile! I will end out this review here. Do you everything I just told you bye!❤️

  • Great game! Some ideas.

    So, I have been playing a this game a lot, and it’s very addicting. And, overall, I give this game a great rating. It doesn’t overload the game with ads, and it also doesn’t need internet! His game is amazing, overall, so, there’s not much to add on. I do want like a boost in the game that you can buy, so you gain more money. The boost would make the miners go fast, and also the delivery people carry more and go faster. These could be separate boosts that you buy, or just one boost and it cost more money. Hopefully, you see this, { or whoever } and listen to some of my ideas. I have one more though. Maybe the game could have the loader, (the person that takes the items) have two people? Like two people working at the same time. It would load more, and would go faster. So, if 5his boost does end up in the game, that would be great. But that’s all my ideas for now. Please consider putting/doing one of them.
