There are games on Steam for $10 with way more content and no ads. Lower the price and I assure you you’ll make way more money. I’m no financial advisor but I think everyone can agree on that. ### 2/5 — Broken *2026-05-24* This game is broken… needs a lot of work… could only play for ten minutes before progress stopped entirely. ### 3/5 — スキルツリー完成不可 *2026-05-18* 359まではスキルツリーを開放する為のプラネットコアが貰えたのに、360から貰えない 361も貰えないのを確認。結果スキルツリー報酬の150個のダイヤが貰えない。 360以降でコアもらえる場面ありますか？ ### 2/5 — Stale gameplay and No ads? *2026-04-17* The gameplay Slows down to a snails pace Fast so that the only Thing you could do is watch ads for ingame items but it just says No Ads are available ### 3/5 — Too hard to progress *2026-03-24* I do like the game but the grind is too tedious ### 3/5 — Fun but high IAP prices and zero tutorials *2026-02-25* It’s a reasonably fun time-passer but there’s literally no explanations of any stats and no way to view all your stats and buffs in one screen (what are HP, Def, and Lifesteal even for??). High IAP prices are a big turn off too, it feels like more time was spent polishing the IAP screen than the user interface. ### 2/5 — has potential *2026-01-14* game has potential but the progress curve is way to hard to climb unless you don’t mind force feeding yourself ads for extra currency. great concept but extremely boring after literally 5 minutes of play time. ### 1/5 — NO ADS! *2026-01-13* I have played many, many, many, mobile apps. The most I have ever had to spend to remove ads was $9.99 or cheaper. What makes you think your game is that much better than all the others to charge $29.99. Your game is mediocre compared to a lot of the other games I have played. I’ll enjoy the free gameplay until it’s gets boring exactly like the rest. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS GAME! ### 2/5 — No long term playability *2026-01-13* Got up to level 203 in an evening. Slow at first, until you quickly just up the tech tree for scaled upgrades. It seems the endgame is just grinding planets to try and complete the tech tree. No prestige function limits long term. ### 1/5 — Only play for 1 day *2026-01-07* I play the game for 1 day after that the game just stuck in the loading screen. ### 1/5 — Way too much of a grind *2026-01-05* Aside from the micro transaction stuff and adds the game itself is too much of a grind. i got to level 10 in like a an hour then from 10 to 13 to took me multiple days. the amount of rebirth coins you get starts being so insignificant and the gold per level doesn’t go up significantly either. Would probably take months to go from level 10 to level 20. truly boring. ### 1/5 — Overpriced and slow *2026-01-02* Super slow pace after level 10, unless you buy packs ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — um lixo *2026-07-20* jogo horrivel e tedioso ### 1/5 — Daily rewards *2026-04-22* Daily rewards doesn’t reset after the 7th day? It’s supposed to be “daily” not for one week only. It doesn’t say “one week of rewards” it says “daily”. That would be every day. ### 1/5 — Помойка *2026-04-08* После 10 уровня без просмотра рекламы или доната развиваться невозможно ### 1/5 — Not really a game *2026-03-25* Add’s are not forced on you but if you don’t watch them expect to log on, spend your money and log off, no real playing required, the balance is off so investing in life steal for example does nothing and even if it did any “game” where the cost of each stat goes up as you level it has an elusion of choice since it prices you out of any strategy anyway. If you zero choice and slow progression, or you want to watch adds then give it a go… ### 1/5 — Greedy *2026-03-20* $30 to remove ads on an idle game is insane. Clearly trying to capitalize on people who are unable to perceive value. Should be banned from the AppStore. ### 1/5 — No option to not consent to personal data collection *2026-03-16* Game deleted and not even played due to not having the option to not consent to all personal data gets deleted ### 1/5 — Deleted After 5 Minutes *2026-02-28* Ad free is $30 and a half dozen pop ups for $20 ships or pay to spin the wheel etc. ### 1/5 — Fun for a few days *2026-02-15* After about a week the game loses its luster and becomes a purely pay to play mechanic. You will stop progressing when you get to planet 250, if not sooner, without either paying $20/item or leaving your phone on all night while you sleep. After logging in for 7 days you get an upgraded ship and a bump in progress up to planet 275 or so, but then everything slows to a crawl again and you will stop progressing. ### 1/5 — Extremely slow progression *2026-01-24* At first you get like 50k per sec and after like 5min I only get 4k per sec and the planets are so tough that you practically don't move.They can add prestige where you reset but you gain permanent power ups. ### 1/5 — Boring progression *2026-01-19* Progression is built to make you pay to advance. For example, beginning of the game they give you thousands per hit. Later in the game you get only 200-300 per hit. Additionally, the planets die fast but the core takes 5+ minutes to kill. You’ll have 50 ships smashing against the core with the rest of the planet dead. It’s just really boring to see the planet dead and yet you still have ships just bouncing away… Again the game is designed to force you to pay money to advance. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best *2026-04-10* I like the game ### 5/5 — Good game underated *2026-04-08* Good game underated ### 5/5 — prestige *2026-04-01* prestigeのボタンがスクリーンショットにあるけど、いつまで経ってもprestigeできない。 できたら最高なのでお願いします！ ### 5/5 — Why I like Planet Miner *2026-03-13* It’s a super fun game and there’s like barely any adds ### 5/5 — Fun game *2026-02-23* You guys did a great job on this game. A couple suggestions. Maybe find a way to get rid of some of the paying icons on the main screen and put them in the shop tab. Cleans the main screen up a little. Also maybe do a ranking system so people can see how they are doing vs other people. Keep up the good work. I hope you guys keep updated the game and keep making it better. Thanks ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-02-08* Fun to play ### 5/5 — actually no ads *2026-01-03* idk what that other guy is on about, there are no forced ads. There absolutely are optional ads for like x2 coins and stuff but that’s obv totally fine, developers gotta get their money somehow ### 5/5 — 한국어아님 *2026-01-01* 한국어아님 ### 4/5 — Nice satisfying game *2026-01-15* Game is very heavy with the micro transactions, however they aren’t necessary to beat the game. Other reviews saying “the game is hard after level 10” is false. Investigate in the right skills in the skill tree and you’ll progress normally. Currently on level 176 without spending anything. The game would be better if the different ship rarity’s weren’t locked behind a pay wall, however they aren’t all that important, as I’m still using the starting ship. If it offered more gems for free to allow you to purchase some things, for example giving 2-5 per planet completed, and then a bonus on the tenth planet, it would be 5 stars. ### 4/5 — New update ruined this game *2025-12-08* It was good before the update, but now the planets are more difficult to destroy. Used to get to level 120 and above, now stuck at level 105. Skill tree also reduced in cost. I know this might be a good thing, but if you used billions to upgrade it you are not getting it back. Worst part of all the planets give less coins by a LOT. Level 104 gave me 277 million, but 105 is 92.3 million. That's a huge reduction. Was fun playing before the update. Lost interest after. Edit: tried the game again after the update. It has improved. The x2 speed made it more easier to get through planets now. The only problem I have is the afk (or "idle") part only work once. If I leave the app and come back I get to level 140-150, but if I upgrade and come back again 0 planets are destroyed. **Developer response:** Hey, thanks for joining the ride so early, we needed to make adjustments and in our newest version have more that may make it more fun, curious to get your feedback since you know the game from early on. -- Planet Miner Team --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
