### 3/5 — Needs sound effects and separate music and sfx options

*2026-08-28*

Please add seperate buttons for to disable solely music and keep sound effects and PLEASE add sound effects like ui, and hitting materials making a noise. It would make the game a lot more satisfying. Its honestly making the game very unsatisfying having no sound effects either because the music overpowers it or there just isnt any

### 5/5 — Well, not bad.

*2026-08-12*

Kind of confusing to figure out all the different upgrades/buttons they’re immediately available. The progression (ie. islands and zones) is also a little scattered, but overall a very well made and fun game to kill time on. :)

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback :) I understand the progression feels a bit scattered, working hard to balance this out.

### 5/5 — Definitely the Best I played in years

*2026-07-22*

I go through a lot of garbage on the App Store. Some games look ok, and some look like a dumpster fire. But this one has exceeded my expectations.

It’s extremely grindy, but in a way that feels like you are actually progressing. I’ve only been playing for 3 days, and I am hooked.

Thank you devs for making this.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! Happy to hear you like the game :)

### 4/5 — Fun but jumps right in

*2026-07-14, version 1.3.102*

Game fun so far but there’s a lot going on all at once lol

### 1/5 — Black screen

*2026-07-07*

I got hit with a black screen on apple and theres no way to clear the cache data on it so its just a permanent black screen that i cant fix game is unplayable now and i really enjoyed it update i fixed the game but its now happened a second time and i cant fix it this time

**Developer response:** Please try closing all background apps or restart the phone. May I also please ask you to email ruotogames@hotmail.com for further assistance.

### 1/5 — Copy of gold mountain

*2026-07-04, version 1.3.102*

Bad copy of gold mountain. Don’t support this fake developer.

### 3/5 — Remaking this review because my original review didn't get posted for some reason

*2026-06-25*

The game is all right, but it is very grinding and time-consuming. Everything cost way too much to craft to level to really anything. The game is not really much of an idol game at all until less your in late game, which will practically take you like months to even get there realistically unless you spend money to up the idle time because it starts at like one hour and then not to mention even when you do get idle time, it's pretty useless you don't really get pet xp you don't get player XP at all or materials or anything outside of the base resources which really isn't the best and if you want to be able to craft gear at like level 30 and up, you gotta play for two+ hours just to get the resources to craft like 10 items for them to all be common or blue Which is awful leveling in itself is extremely slow so you could sit there for 15 hours and you'll probably maybe hit 30 and that's me being nice because it really all depends on your character your skills that you've invest into and everything not to mention, the developer says that you shouldn't hit any walls but you will. I have to sit there for like three days just to get up to 450 million prestige points and that's because I don't feel like playing every waking hour of every single day on top of that the armor that's supposed to give you a big boot doesn't do anything considering as I mentioned nine times out of 10 it's gonna be a rare or a common, which is useless and it's not gonna do anything for you so you will hit walls in this game like I've prioritized resources and damage upgrades and my overall equipment and I'm still hitting walls i've been trying to unlock the dormant mind for the past week and even with the 2X pill that gives me six times my damage the two different things of universal damage that I bought and everything and using all the damaged bonus skills. I still can't even beat the guy guarding it and when I'm using the damage boost, I have like 230 million damage multiply that by six now and I still can't do it and despite everything I've said I do like the game, but I'm not gonna lie it is very grinding and everybody that's going to play. This needs to know before they get into it so that they know what they're getting into. Because you will spend a lot of time and I do mean a lot of time playing it to make progress.

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to write such detailed feedback and for giving the game a fair chance. I appreciate you pointing out where the progression felt too slow and where you ran into walls. My goal is for the game to have long-term progression without feeling frustrating, so feedback like this is very valuable. I'll continue working on balancing the progression and improving the overall experience. Thanks again for playing!

### 5/5 — Top

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-06-18*

Add some character customization for more personalization

### 5/5 — Pretty neat game

*2026-05-31, version 1.2.405*

Have been enjoying the game a good bit.
