### 1/5 — Greedy developers

*2023-05-01, version 1.2.7*

Greedy Developers are gone, they don’t care about anyone but themselves and the money that they rake in from this game. They have not brought anything new in over 2 years but yet still being in money from people waiting for something new in the game. We know that won’t happen because the greedy developers only care about making money, not the people who make it for them.

### 1/5 — Costs to much money to buy things

*2021-10-24, version 1.2.7*

Costs to much money to buy things you need to fix this bring prices down and money up and that goes for your other mining game to

### 3/5 — Money problems

*2021-08-03, version 1.2.7*

The game itself isn’t bad but the money doesn’t go up as it should some times it doesn’t go any faster if you tap and I’m on a 4,000 machine tapping when it’s x5 and it’s moving up in 100s so frustrating takes 5/6 hours to get enough money

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2021-06-05, version 1.2.7*

The game is quite good but it needs improvement.
The equipment is over priced.
When the fuel tank is half full it costs the same as it would be empty.

### 4/5 — Great game

*2021-05-28, version 1.2.7*

Great game just needs fixing there is a red number one on the app all the time cannot remove it

### 1/5 — Impossible to play with multiple fingers

*2021-04-15, version 1.2.7*

It’s nearly impossible to play the game with multiple fingers to speed up the money gathering process. Multi clicking on the main area is not that but when you try and do the same with any of the mines that you bought the screen starts scrolling like crazy. The game thinks that you are trying to scroll instead of trying to click more. Kinda ridiculous how small the “dead zone” is. Not worth the time.

### 4/5 — Needs update

*2021-04-05, version 1.2.7*

Great game but needs an update money doesn’t go up the correct amount when tapping machines or paying for fuel spending more on fuel than I’m making as it’s going up a $1/s instead of $20000/s like it should be other than that great game

### 1/5 — Money counter is broken

*2021-03-31, version 1.2.7*

Okay game so far it’s EXTREMELY time consuming. There is DEFINITELY something wrong with the money counter. One minute I’ll be making a tone of money then I buy a new upgrade to make more money and the cash flow turns 2x slower. I’m on the verge of deleting it.

### 5/5 — Gold rush gold empire

*2021-03-02, version 1.2.7*

The game i found weird abit about what you actuly earn as i click on macine give £25 million yet it dont register as that amount either with fuel or manualy other than that a good game

### 2/5 — Latest bug fix needs fixing.

*2021-02-16, version 1.2.7*

Love this game but since the latest update I notice my screen moves around a lot for no reason. Also the bonus items for extra gems and cash multipliers speed across the screen now at a  ridiculous pace now! If you blink you miss it and there are times I tap on them and it still doesn't register that I tapped on them! Developers need to go back and fix this immediately!
