### 4/5 — More levels pls!

*2025-09-16, version 1.8*

I really love this game, it’s been super fun to play! One problem though: I’ve finished the levels, and now I don’t know what to do! Maybe adding more characters or a new level of armor would solve that problem; completing more levels means more characters/armor unlocked! I would love to see it go past level 26! Also, just a little side-suggestion, when Alduco’s power-up is used, if he gets shot by a shooter alien, he dies. However, he can still survive the security bot blast? It doesn’t make much sense. But I would mainly love to see more levels and possibly characters!

### 4/5 — Shockt

*2024-08-30, version 1.8*

Nices Offline Game

### 2/5 — Could be great..!!

*2024-01-27, version 1.7*

Spent several hours on iPad mini and cannot get off level 3
Spent less time playing on an iPhone and yet achieved level 7  …?

Trying to find the secret military base I find nigh on impossible and have now given up completely 

Let down by too many enemies stopping you process as they block your path with no where to go, except dying so many times it spoils the gameplay which to be honest is very good 

All things considered a waste of £2.99
For a few hours of frantic often frustrating gameplay

### 4/5 — Fun and challenging!

*2024-01-05, version 1.7*

First off, I’m really excited to see updates! It’s nice to see the developers adding new things. I’ve been playing dig deep since march of 2020. It’s a great game to pick up for a minute or two. However, let me warn you: sometimes you think you can finish a couple of missions, then realize you’ve been playing for an hour! I’d love to see the following: fixing the screen for notch/island users (I can’t see some of my stats) maybe a new enemy, a new agent, and a new power up? Once I bought all the upgrades the gold doesn’t have a purpose…I would also like the ability to use another boost once you hit 1000m, and maybe an agent who can revive themselves once during a run? Just some ideas off the top of my head! Thanks again and keep up the work!!

### 4/5 — Pretty fun, could have more

*2023-11-19, version 1.6*

Qualquer um que tenha jogado, pode dizer o quanto é repetitivo, mas o jogo sabe nos manter nele em busca do próximo level e recompensa. 
Depois de alcançar o último nível, fiquei com uma gorda sacola de moedas sem nada pra fazer com ela, e isso só mostra o potencial desperdiçado do jogo. 
Poderiam haver mais coisas pra adquirir, poderes, save-states? Hahah 
A música do menu é muito bacana!
Mas apesar de divertido, poderia ser bem mais desenvolvido.

*2023-05-15, version 1.6*

Fun game and easy to play

### 4/5 — Dig Deep - Entertaining Aesthetics, And Maddening Difficulty

*2023-04-30, version 1.5*

I deeply appreciate that the developer responded to my review, and I have amended it. I had complained that the game goals were impossible, but after a month, I was able to get to level 15 - the trick is to play until you are presented with a random sequence of two or three boosts immediately prior to a long, wide column of gold somewhere around 800 meters - it’ll happen about once every 2,000-5,000 games, give or take. If you die early in the sequence, you just have to let it roll around again (it’s hard to gauge exactly how often the “wall of gold” is loaded, and often you’ll get the boosts without the gold, or the gold without the boosts). So I stand corrected - it is possible to get level advances, just very rare. I suppose I should say more, if only to help anyone else. If you can unlock the second character, you get a power to briefly double your gold score, but only if you are lucky enough to dig 25 gold blocks very quickly in a row. So, in exceedingly rare circumstances, you can get a sequence where it’s possible to double the amount of gold you’re credited with at the same moment that you encounter a “boost” just above an unusually thick collection of gold blocks. As far as I know, that’s the only way to collect 2,500 gold points. As for other goals (like getting to the level with laser cannons (misspelled in the game as “canons”) that requires a combination of almost impossible luck and timing. After thousands of plays, playing 4-5 hours a day for the last month, I’ve gotten to the “lasers” maybe six times, only to be instantly killed by a fast-moving bouncing ball.

### 5/5 — Excellent game!

*2023-02-05, version 1.5*

This game is a blast to play! I’ve enjoyed countless hours mining deep into the underground!

Quick question. I’m stuck on collect 6500 gold pieces in one run. Have been for awhile. Any advice anyone can give on that level?

Again excellent game! Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Хороший и интересный геймплей.

*2022-07-11, version 1.5*

Игра проста в управлении. Интересный геймплей, и не требует много места на телефоне. И при этом - прекрасный тайм киллер

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2022-03-08, version 1.5*

More updates pls

### 1/5 — Good Concept, Below Average Execution

*2025-07-23, version 1.8*

There’s too much screen shake, and no option to turn it off. Everything that happens causes the screen to shake, and it seems that sometimes, that results in the game not registering inputs. Missed inputs are unforgivable in a game like this. I’ve died on sandstone multiple times because the game just decides to have me dig down even though I’m tapping as fast as possible.

### 1/5 — Great

*2023-06-08, version 1.6*

Great

### 1/5 — Can not open the app at all

*2022-07-31, version 1.5*

It’s been a few months and I’ve been completely unable to open the app. I cleared my storage, restarted my phone, and hoped there’d be an update to fix this. It’s a fun game, and I wish I could play it.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2022-03-06, version 1.5*

What happened? It doesn’t even start now.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-07-15, version 1.5*

Sloppy,unresponsive controls.Unwinnable situations.Not recommended.

### 1/5 — Good game but can’t progress

*2020-04-02, version 1.5*

Can’t upgrade old Roger so hopefully it gets fixed

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2020-04-01, version 1.5*

This app is ok if it’s free, but I wouldn’t pay any money for it at all.

### 1/5 — Can’t progress

*2020-03-30, version 1.5*

Telling me to upgrade character but won’t let me.

### 1/5 — Kinda bland

*2020-03-30, version 1.5*

Boring

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2019-03-05, version 1.5*

As of right now, I’m giving one star. The reason for this is, every time I open the game it doesn’t even make it to the title screen before it completely crashes. If you could fix that, that’d be great. But until then, 1 star my dudes.

### 5/5 — Exelant

*2026-06-30, version 1.8*

I was downloading apps trying to find ones with no ads and this one was just the right one

### 5/5 — Divertente

*2026-01-18, version 1.8*

Ma che bella sorpresa! Divertente . Top.

### 5/5 — Needs new update for another gem

*2025-09-01, version 1.8*

I recently collected everything and I noticed that it still lacks another level to get the final gem for the last upgrade to one of the characters.

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2025-02-25, version 1.8*

this is a great game, i was able to complete it after a few weeks of playing. be careful of buying upgrades though, in my first playthrough i was stuck in one mission since i wasted my gem in upgrading a hero and the mission required me to upgrade/buy a different hero. to fix it you will need to delete the app and start from scratch.

### 5/5 — Миссия 6к золотом собрать

*2024-06-27, version 1.8*

Делал эту миссию 5 лет.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2024-04-21, version 1.8*

Came back to this game after a while and found my stats reset. That was fine though, and I just played through from the start. Great game with really interesting strategies and techniques, would love to see more content in the future as I’ve now beaten all the levels!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2024-02-16, version 1.7*

Great app to waste away a quick interval of time - long or short!

### 5/5 — Thanks for the updates!

*2023-12-25*

Tons of fun! I really appreciate the updates after being released for so long! Would love to see a character that can boost down or the ability to use a purchased boost after 1000m

### 5/5 — Love

*2023-11-09, version 1.6*

I love you ad-free mobile game with all my heart

### 5/5 — Keeps me coming back

*2023-10-08, version 1.6*

Emailed the developer for advice and promptly got a response. The tasks to level up are challenging and keep me trying. It’s nice to play at any point and not worry about saving progress or anything like that.
