## What is Pickaxe King Island?

[Pickaxe King Island]
A relaxing tycoon game with pixel graphics!

Build your kingdom with your pickaxe and run your farm.
Go on adventures in dungeons, and mine many ores in the mine.
Grow your very own kingdom!

 
[Start]

Chop trees and gather wood.
Sell the wood to earn gold coins.
Use the coins to expand your farm and buy chickens.
Chickens lay eggs and make you even more money!

Grow many crops,
and buy important farm animals like cows.
Sell your farm goods to earn more money,
buy new islands, and expand your kingdom!

 
[Cooking]

Cook food in the oven with ingredients from your farm!

Make cheese with milk, bake bread with wheat,
and mix different ingredients to discover new recipes.
Dishes made with recipes can sell for a higher price,
so it feels twice as rewarding!

[Dungeon]

As your kingdom grows, you will find hidden dungeons.

Explore with the Fox Knight
and collect magical resources!
Use special rewards found only in dungeons
to make your kingdom even stronger.

Orcs, minotaurs, slimes, and many other monsters
will try to stop you,
but if you train the Fox Knight and upgrade gear,
nothing will scare you!

[Mine]

Mine lots of ores in the mine!

With the ores you collect,
you can upgrade your pickaxe and many kinds of equipment.
Conquer hundreds of floors,
and the deeper you go, the more rare and valuable ores you can find!

 
[Item Cards & Costume Collection]

Collect over 30 item cards
to grow your kingdom faster and with more fun!

Equip the cute Doggy King card,
and you can ride the Doggy King to move around your kingdom quickly!

Wear the Miner’s Gloves,
and your pickaxe speed will get even faster.

Also, collect over 100 costumes
and dress up the Pickaxe King your way.
Create the one and only Pickaxe King just for you!

 
[Pickaxe & Gear Upgrades]

Upgrade your pickaxe with ores from the mine,
and you can break even the hardest rocks in one hit.

Upgrade the Fox Knight’s gear,
challenge deeper dungeons,
and enjoy exciting growth!

[New Adventure]

When you buy the last island,
new content you never expected will open up!

Here’s a hint…
A ranking battle with other Pickaxe Kings is waiting for you.
Of course, you don’t have to join if you don’t want to!

If you prefer healing over competition,
you can grow your kingdom at your own pace
and enjoy rich content in a comfortable way.

With the Pickaxe King,
build your own kingdom slowly and happily.

You don’t need to try too hard.
This is a healing game.

Relax and enjoy,
and grow your kingdom at your own speed.

We hope [Pickaxe King Island]
brings a little happiness to your day!

### 4/5 — Great addictive game

*2026-09-06, version 463.2*

Game is very fun to play without feeling like a chore,no mandatory ads feels like a dream, fantastic please keep that. There are lots of benefits of watching ads when you want to, so much so that that plus me thoroughly enjoying the game led me to buy the $20 no ads but still get rewards pack. Happy to support this game if this quality continues.

My only hope for this game is that even after 5-10 hours played I don’t see any sort of multiplayer/leaderboards etc system. Maybe it will come or be released. If so 5 stars for sure.

Maybe similar to other games and let you add friends/see others stats/builds/gear etc or even a start with leaderboards for things. Maybe an endless dungeon or mine etc?

Keep it up developers

### 3/5 — A bit buggy

*2026-09-02, version 463.2*

Nice game, but has some bugs. Not the least of which is when I come back after 6-7 hours, the kitchen is still cooking things like blueberry pies and fried eggs. Sometimes it will, sometimes it won’t. Another is the dungeon. Life bar says I’m full, next thing I know it says level ended with the hero escaping safely. Huh?

### 3/5 — Fishing game buggy

*2026-08-31, version 463.2*

Fun overall game but the fishing part is bad. I have tried different ways of tapping/pulling on the rod/button but it doesn’t register that I have actually “pulled”.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2026-08-30, version 463.2*

I actually like this game it has a perfect pace, ads aren’t overbearing and it’s cute. I’m going to keep playing and hopefully all of this just gets better.

### 5/5 — yo great game

### 1/5 — 1/5

*2026-08-27, version 462.5*

Stop making pay to play 😭 I just wanna be on that work grind without having to go back to the tent / pay for not having to go back to the tent

### 5/5 — 게임은 재미잇어요

*2026-08-20*

오븐 수 늘리고 나면 가끔 재접안해주면 프레임 드랍 심하게 일어나는정도 말고는 단점이 크게 없네요. 광고 제거는 필수적으로 사야해서 염두하시는게 좋아요 에메랄드도 사는게 좋긴한데... 솔직히 안사도 던전 컨텐츠 진행 느려지는 정도에요
그리고 오븐 좀 자기가 원하는 수치 입력좀 되게 해주세요 ㅠㅠ 강박증때문에 미치겟음

### 3/5 — Difficile d’avoir les clés et les diamants

*2026-08-11*

Très bon jeu mais c’est plutôt difficile d’avoir des clés de donjon deux mine ainsi que le diamant pour toutes les améliorations qui le demandent

### 3/5 — Almost the perfect mobile game

*2026-08-07, version 462.5*

There are elements of this game that are fantastic. The gameplay is simple and straightforward, the music is good, and there are time-based challenges that add to the fun. Despite the good, there is at least one major problem: very tiny gains for a disproportionately huge cost. 

Finally earn enough green gems to research an upgrade? It’ll benefit you by .01%. Spend several hours collecting and making ingredients to make other things that’ll sell for a lot of money so you can invest in decreasing production time only to burn through 300k to decrease it by .1% at .01% increments. 

Good games can be negatively impacted by being made too easy or too cumbersome and this is the latter. Is it good? Yes. Is it worth the effort in the long run? Meh.

### 5/5 — Ovens

*2026-08-05, version 462.5*

I feel like we need more ovens now that we have villagers but overall love the game . I just wish I could cook more and get more coins to fill upgrade my island and have some saved for the next update.
