### 2/5 — Incomplete Game?

*2026-07-21*

As others have mentioned, this game is p2p unless you’re willing to watch a ton of ads. That being said, even if you pay for the ad block, the game feels incomplete after the 2nd area.

### 4/5 — Jeu

*2026-04-03*

Ça fait un an qu’il n’y a pas eu de mise à jour 😮

### 2/5 — Forced ads

*2025-07-25*

Would be cool if I wasn’t forced to watch 6+ minutes of ads every 6 hours to renew.

### 2/5 — Werbung

*2025-06-01*

2 Sterne für die Grafik. Spiel/Werbeprinzip völlig unausgeglichen. Die Minen produzieren überhaupt nicht genug, um vorankommen zu können. Schon von Anfang an muss man so viel Werbung anschauen oder Geld in die Hand nehmen, sonst geht nichts vorwärts. Schade. Dann nicht.

### 2/5 — Good game

*2025-05-15, version 1.139.0*

I liked this game enough to pay the exorbitant price of $20 to turn off ads.  Wondering if it was really worth it. Rewards are nearly non-existent and upgrades are far too expensive. Recharging mines costs 80k. I’m averaging just under 4K/30s. I’ve only been playing for 2 days. Upgrade table to level 3 costs $61k (1k, 15k and & 45k). Reward = 4K. Cost after 50k upgrade is 100k.. while you’re earning 4K/30s. Not just one upgrade per mine. It’s 100k each for 6 drills, then mine carts and ladders. None of my miners are happy. In 2nd mine area and any upgrade over level 2 or 3 costs 100k+. They all want special lights at 50 gems each. Add in chefs who can only be bought with gems. Gems come at 10 gems a day. Either balance the upgrade costs better or raise the rewards to keep people interested.

### 3/5 — Fun

*2025-04-24*

Need more attractive stuff to keep me stay in this game…!!! Money take forever to build up for next stage, make me bored

### 2/5 — Aburrido

*2025-04-16, version 1.138.0*

Monotono, lento.
Llega un momento que cansa y aburre

### 3/5 — Cant make bearings

*2025-04-06*

I’ve bought everything that I can and there is no ore like I need to make the bearings

### 2/5 — 広告が見たい？おすすめです！

*2025-03-26*

Idleって放置って意味なんだけど全然放置できない 作業員はずっと不満を漏らしていて改善するにはお金が必要 お金が欲しい？じゃ課金か広告見てね 終始ずっとこれ 序盤忙しいのは理解できるが広告再生要求が多すぎる 先に客が離れるとかまでは考えないのかね

### 4/5 — Gut, aber es fehlt noch was

*2025-03-14*

Ich finde das Spiel eigentlich gut und habe mir auch den Luxus gegönnt, dass ich keine Werbung schauen muss. Leider finde ich die Möglichkeiten dies zu nutzen recht wenig. Der Investor taucht seit gestern gar nicht mehr auf und auch andere Funktionen, wie das schnellere arbeiten, sind noch nicht so gut ausgereift. Da muss das Spiel definitiv besser werden. Ansonsten lohnt sich der Kauf nicht wirklich…

### 1/5 — Requires premium currency

*2025-03-11, version 1.137.0*

If you don’t purchase premium currency the game speed slows way down and you get money penalties on everything.

### 1/5 — No carga

*2025-03-10, version 1.137.0*

He descargado el juego tres veces, he reiniciado mi tablet dos veces, pero el juego no carga, salta a la pantalla sin hacer la carga, ni siquiera el inicio.

### 1/5 — 全然違う詐欺広告

*2025-03-06*

起動はしますが、広告と中身は全然別物でした。
インストールする価値無いです

### 1/5 — Language

*2025-03-02*

no russian language. add russian language

### 1/5 — Ruim mentiroso

*2026-02-16*

Cheio de propaganda de outros jogos falsos

### 1/5 — バグだらけのゴミ

*2025-12-28*

ツルハシの生産が勝手に止まり再起動しないと直らない。再起動すると収益が減る。まともなゲーム作れないならもう作るのやめた方がいい。

### 1/5 — Оптимизируйте прогресс

*2025-07-10*

Шахтеры вечно недовольные

### 1/5 — Disgraceful

*2025-07-02, version 1.139.0*

Probably the worst of this type of idle ‘game’ I have ever played, constant ad spam and minimal production, just another thing not worth the time.

### 1/5 — 想像してみて下さい

*2025-05-12*

例えば石材を掘る人と場所を整えるとします。その為に必要な経費は高額で、90秒の広告を1つ見たって足りません。なのに雇った人達からは「設備が悪い、飯がまずい」などクレームが出て気分は悪いです
それだけではありません。雇った人達は課金などで増やせるジュエルを使わないと不満を垂れますし、デイリーにジュエルの使用、課金が入っています。ここまで来ると恐ろしいですね
絶対無課金で広告を見ずにやるぞ！と言う方は戦って見て下さい。初めのステージの鉱石場を全て整えるのに十日単位掛かるかもしれませんよ

### 1/5 — Ads and offline cuckery

*2025-05-06*

Same as so so many games on here.
Great little game I managed to progress to the second mine but the ads for the mandatory extra cash and the abysmal 2hours offline time just ground me down

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2025-03-31, version 1.138.0*

Takes forever to get any money and they just copied every other game like this. Either watch 400 videos or pay because that’s the only way you can move forward in this game. Very disappointing

### 1/5 — Extreme p2w

*2025-03-24*

Seemed pretty decent in 1st 2 areas. I bought no ads for ad free bonuses. Then the ads slow down a lot, by 3rd area only speed up ore and overnight ads show up, 0 money ads anymore. Income from quest rewards have decreased a lot once hit 3rd area. Requires purchased currency (gems) upgrades or penalty to income for each room. By 3rd area p2w is becoming very heavy handed.

### 1/5 — Betrug

*2025-03-19*

Spielt dieses Spiel einfach nicht, es wird mit einem werbefreien Spiel Abo  gemacht und es werden die Versprechen aus diesem Abo nicht eingehalten , man muss Diamanten bezahlen um die Mienen effizient nutzen zu können

### 1/5 — Ad watching simulator

*2025-03-18*

Don’t waste your time…

### 5/5 — Idle mining

*2024-12-29, version 1.133.0*

Great game and no adds. The only problem is that when you get the silver key, you can not scroll down far enough in the shop to open the case, please fix this problem.
