### 2/5 — So many ads

*2026-09-05, version 1.28.07*

Janky graphics and controls, constant ads

### 3/5 — Fun but all the ads

*2026-09-04, version 1.28.07*

The game is fun, but the forced ads every minute or so are about to have me uninstalling it.

### 4/5 — One single irritating glitch

*2026-09-04, version 1.28.07*

I used to be fully addicted to this game. I genuinely love just having repetitive, rewarding tasks and the haptics, when I my phone can handle it, are fantastic sensory feedback. It’s simple enough for kids, complicated enough to not bore adults! Recently it came up in an ad and I went to play it again, not remembering why I stopped. Well, I remember now. There’s a “sync data” glitch where it will stop your game play to sync for about 5 seconds and then have you quit and restart the app. It’s not a huge, would be fine if it happened once a day, but it gets stuck in a cycle and won’t stop doing it every few minutes. This is genuinely the only reason it’s not 5 stars.

### 3/5 — Repetitive

*2026-09-04, version 1.28.07*

It’s a fun game till you reach island 6 area 2 then it just starts to repeat it self and the in game currency is a joke as well but if you want something to distract yourself for a little while play it just don’t waste your time with trying to get further then what can be unlocked.

### 2/5 — Ok

*2026-09-01, version 1.28.07*

I always get unexpected ads from random stuff. So annoying. Otherwise it’s fun

### 3/5 — 😣

*2026-08-31, version 1.28.07*

I like the game a lot but it takes to much battery to play drains my phone.

### 3/5 — Eh

*2026-08-30, version 1.28.07*

It was ok but lowkey boring and not like the ad I watched for it and then there was way to many ads in the game

### 2/5 — Ads are ridiculous

*2026-08-29, version 1.28.07*

I enjoy the game, but wow the ads are wild..it’s quicker to close the game and reload it every ad.

### 2/5 — Way too many ads

*2026-08-29, version 1.28.07*

This game seems like it would be fun but it’s hard to tell.  Every minute a 15-30 second ad pops up that you are forced to watch, you have to pay at minimum 5.50$ to remove the ads.

### 2/5 — Review

*2026-08-29, version 1.28.07*

Great game but SO SO many ads it’s almost unplayable

### 3/5 — ADS ADS ADS

*2026-08-28, version 1.28.07*

It’s a pretty neat little game. But the ADS are horrendous. I just started playing yesterday and I’m thinking about deleting it..

### 4/5 — Eh

*2026-08-28, version 1.28.07*

This game is really enjoyable. Relaxing to play. Only complaint is it totally jips you if you just dig straight down, then try to do the rest. I upgraded the rope length 40 times. Dug from 340 meters to 740 meters. When I made it back to the top it was at 640, rather than 340 where it should have been.

### 1/5 — Watch ads the game

*2026-08-26, version 1.28.07*

1 ad every 60 seconds

### 1/5 — Horrific.

*2026-08-26, version 1.28.07*

This app has an EXCESSIVE amount of ads. It is some of the worst frequencies of ads in a mobile game I have ever experienced. It's truly abhorrent.

### 1/5 — Disappearing money

*2026-09-05, version 1.28.07*

This game used to be good, but it learned a really neat trick.  Every time I reopen the app (especially after a hijack ad) my money goes down to zero

### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS

*2026-09-04, version 1.28.07*

I have actually never played a game on my phone that had this many ads, especially on an idle game! I usually wouldn’t mind watching ads for extra boosts and what not. BUT every 5 seconds an ad pops up. I don’t understand. You can’t even enjoy gameplay. I get frustrated with it and shut the game off. I would play for an hour or so at a time if this wasn’t happening.

### 1/5 — ???

*2026-09-04, version 1.28.07*

I tried downloading the game again after about a year of not playing and for some reason I’m not earning money at all! My stuff is upgraded high and I watched a truck leave with a load of 10 of them, each costing 2.2B$, and my money STAYED at 15.4B$. I was excited to play again and extremely disappointed. They spent all their time to add more content like a “battle pass” and pay to receive items, as well as putting an advertisement for every 30 seconds of playtime. Disgusted and disappointed, deleted the game and will not reinstall and DO NOT RECOMMEND.

### 1/5 — Not as advertised in the ad

*2026-09-02, version 1.28.07*

Another bait and switch game shows you one thing and the game is totally different

### 1/5 — Ad every 2 seconds

*2026-09-01, version 1.28.07*

There is an ad every 2secs

### 1/5 — Forced ads

*2026-08-31, version 1.28.07*

Game is practically unplayable due to the frequency of forced ads that can occur after almost any action taken in the game. Gameplay itself is not very impressive, but the ads make it terrible as a whole. I'd give it zero stars if I could.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-08-31, version 1.28.07*

Ads every minute lasting longer than a minute make game play impossible without paying for 0 Ads

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-08-31, version 1.28.07*

The game design as well done I will give you that. However, the ads are repetitive within 1 to 2 minutes apart… Nine dollars to stop the forced ads. I would’ve done it, but on the second level, I’ve already experienced 14 ads.

### 1/5 — Most ad filled game ever

*2026-08-29, version 1.28.07*

Not even every three months there’s an ad I can’t get anything done. I can barely do anything with that through being a stupid stinking ad.

### 1/5 — Whatever

*2026-08-28, version 1.28.07*

The video trailer trying to get you to download the game doesn’t allow you to decide for yourself whether you want the game or not makes it mandatory for you to download it 
Apparently we’re not allowed to think for ourselves

### 5/5 — Great game but best of all as advertised!!

*2026-09-04, version 1.28.07*

Great fun game that is exactly as advertised and shown in App Store. Fun relaxing and honest. Love game and a honest corp like these guys❤️❤️

### 5/5 — Very repetitive—-Help

*2026-09-02, version 1.28.07*

How do I start over? I’ve deleted and downloaded the app several times and it always takes me back to level 35 but never starts over on level one is there someway I can start over This app popped up while I was downloading another app so I gave it a try. I’m up to about level 35. Every one since level 3 or 4 has been the same. The only thing that changes is your list of daily quests. Some days you upgrade the drill, other days the vacuum. Some days you use the super worker, other days it’s the super miner or the hover board. The update did change the scenery but everything else is the same, day after day.

### 5/5 — Simple
