### 3/5 — Good game but

*2026-08-02, version 1.1.6*

Don’t try and buy anything it never goes through

### 4/5 — Luke

*2026-02-27, version 1.1.6*

The game is fun but could do with some more tasks I have unlocked every thing you can and it says new mine coming soon that’s been for around 3 years please bring some updates because I’m considering getting rid off the game soon

### 2/5 — Płatność

*2026-01-14, version 1.1.6*

Kupiłem diamenty z 24.99 120 diamentów i nie dostałem ich na konto. Jestem bardzo zawiedziony tym faktem

### 4/5 — Hello Casual

*2023-05-24*

Hello casual in your next Update I was wondering if you could change some things about the game. When you have to refill the diesel fuel could you make it do it automatically please. Could you make it easier to get to get trucks and excavators please. I am a little confused about how to get the dredge in the game.

### 4/5 — Blue things floating around,

*2021-06-06, version 1.1.4*

When you click on them they just show a number?

### 2/5 — Too expensive

*2021-05-04, version 1.1.4*

The machine costs are too expensive if you lower the cost it will be better for players

### 2/5 — Eh :/

*2021-05-04, version 1.1.4*

It seems fun and has potential but the gameplay is way to slow for me. You literally have to spend money if you want to actually enjoy it! All of the in game purchases are pretty expensive for a mobile game also. I find myself having to tap thousands of times simply to upstage my stuff. You only get $1 per tap from what it seems so u can do the math. Atleast add a level up system to acquire more money through time.

### 2/5 — Update von Nöten

*2021-03-08, version 1.1.4*

Das Spiel ist in sich ein wenig unstimmig... warte seid längeren auf genügend Geld um Mine 3 freizuschalten... naja es ist ohne zu tippen nicht zu schaffen. Was ich persönlich schade finde. 3 1/2 Tage warten und denn 3/4 des eingenommenes Geld in rep. Kosten zu stecken? Die Entwickler sollten sich was einfallen lassen, scheint aber tot zu sein das Spiel. Schade, Grund Idee für zwischen durch oki, aber mit diesen teils miserablen Voraussetzungen schlecht. 

Vielleicht investieren sie noch wenig Zeit, um es nach vorne zu bringen....

### 1/5 — Kinda Boring and Too Much

*2021-02-19, version 1.1.4*

You just click the screen. It doesn’t progress very fast and is pretty much just designed to make you spend money in the app if you are serious about clicking. Money amounts just get insanely stupid.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me restore purchases

*2021-02-17, version 1.1.4*

Bought the auto tap feature. I wanted to restart the game so I deleted it then redownloaded it. Now won’t let me restore purchases. Emailed the developer email no response 5+ days.

### 1/5 — Appalling!!!

*2021-02-15, version 1.1.4*

If you want to tap on your screen for no gain, then this is the total waste of time for you! 
Avoid at all costs, I had more fun deleting the game!

### 1/5 — Lost everything

*2021-02-10, version 1.1.4*

My phone broke so I had get new iPhone an I got game again so I go to restore my purchases in game in come up with triangle with ! Mark in it so I got by stuff back in it ask if I want it for me so I do and it still charged my card

### 1/5 — Extrem langweilig

*2021-02-09, version 1.1.4*

Das ist das mit Abstand langweiligste und inhaltsloseste spiel, das ich je gespielt habe...

### 1/5 — Boring game

*2021-02-07, version 1.1.4*

Useless game , you have to continuously tap on the screen to play. Boring 😩

### 2/5 — The creators need to read this

*2021-01-04, version 1.1.4*

How do I get when it’s like when I start the game it just ends up with dirt and I have to tap the dirt and I get girls but I want trucks

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2021-01-04, version 1.1.4*

Upgrade & equipment prices are ridiculously high takes for ever to to make money. Billions of dollars for machines phone screen will be worn out before you get the money 🤦‍♂️

### 1/5 — Nul à fuir

*2021-01-01, version 1.1.4*

Nul il est à fuir se jeu

### 4/5 — gold rush expansion

*2020-12-15, version 1.1.3*

### 1/5 — Voleur

*2026-07-15, version 1.1.6*

Ne faite pas d’achat sur se jeux ces une arnaque

### 1/5 — Purchase motivated

*2025-07-23, version 1.1.6*

I’ve had this game on my iPhone for years, I’m near the endgame but is seems that the in game “tax” prevents you from progression.  Kinda a waste of time

### 1/5 — Do not buy add ons

*2025-06-19, version 1.1.6*

I have bought in game add on. Especially diamonds. Never did receive the diamonds

Update. It’s been a week since I brought this up. Still nothing yet. Where are my diamonds

### 1/5 — Horrible. No instructions

*2024-04-11, version 1.1.6*

All I can do is tap the screen to gain $1  
Just a dirt road with couple trailers.  Can’t do anything but just tap a screen.   
Weird game.  Doesn’t work or ????

### 1/5 — Developers are gone

*2023-05-01, version 1.1.4*

This used to be a good game, now the developers don’t care enough to bring anything new to the game. They are still cashing in on people who buy things or “help us” so there will be new items. All these greedy developers are doing is cashing while giving zero in return.

### 1/5 — Too many messages

*2022-02-04, version 1.1.4*

Too many Messages
I can’t

### 1/5 — Never to be updated

*2022-01-04, version 1.1.4*

They will never update the game! Don’t waist your money “supporting” them to bring new updates to the game as it will be useless and bring nothing new. It’s been well over a year since any thing and several years since new equipment was added.

### 1/5 — TAP TAP TAP

*2021-09-18, version 1.1.4*

I finally got to the last level and that’s the dredge one. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE DREDGE TO WORK IS TO BUILD IT PIECE BY PIECE AND YOU HAVE TO TAP HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF TIMES!!!

Great game but we’re you on meth when you made the dredge?

### 1/5 — Too long to upgrade now

*2021-05-17, version 1.1.4*

I need 615,000dd just fo upgrade the next dredge, will literally take weeks to get there . Was okay at the start but now just takes forever to do anything and boring now. Waste of time

### 1/5 — Game Flawed

*2021-03-31, version 1.1.4*

It doesn’t matter what you do or how many coins you buy,
The games broken,
After finishing mine 2 it doesn’t matter how much you upgrade everything the maximum you can earn a day is restricted,
And you can’t move forward it never changes,
Was having fun up until now but after mine 2 I have given up and deleted the app.
Not worth it.

*2020-07-26, version 1.1.1*
