## What is TerraMine?

TerraMine turns the real world into your personal mining empire. 
Buy virtual mine properties on a real map, earn passive income 
around the clock, visit friends' mines, and compete with players 
in your city and beyond.

YOUR WORLD. YOUR MINES.
Every property in TerraMine sits on a real location. Walk to a 
spot, claim it as your mine, and start earning TerraBucks (TB) 
and real passive USD income — even when the app is closed.

STAKE A CLAIM
Purchase any unclaimed square near you for 100 TerraBucks. Each 
property is randomly assigned a mine type:

Rock Mine — steady, reliable income
Coal Mine — 1.5x the earnings of rock
Gold Mine — 2x the earnings of rock
Diamond Mine — 4x the earnings of rock (1% chance!)

VISIT FRIENDS. EARN TOGETHER.
Walk near another player's mine and check in to earn bonus TB. 
Leave messages and photos when you check in, and build your 
reputation as an explorer. Property owners earn TB every time 
someone visits their land.

DAILY MINING MINI-GAMES
Each mine type has its own unique game:

Rock Mine: Rock Conveyor — sort rocks as they roll by
Coal Mine: Miner Maze — navigate the underground tunnels
Gold Mine: Gold Rush — connect the path to the pot of gold
Diamond Mine: Laser Blast — guide the laser to the diamond

Level up your mines by playing daily to unlock harder challenges 
and bigger rewards.

BOOST YOUR EARNINGS 20X
Activate an Earning Boost to multiply your passive income by 20x. 
Use free daily boosts or watch a short ad to extend your boost — 
stack up to 8 hours of boosted earnings.

REFER FRIENDS. EARN TOGETHER.
Share your personal referral link and you both earn 1,000 TB when 
a friend buys their first TerraAcre. The more friends you bring 
in, the more mines there are to visit — and the bigger your 
empire grows.

CLIMB THE LEADERBOARD
See where you rank among all miners by property count. Every 
TerraAcre you claim moves you up the Top 10.

TerraMine is free to play. Get outside, explore your 
neighborhood, and start mining the real world today.

### 5/5 — Referral TM—F36Z3

*2026-08-23*

I like the app but it just seems over the top extremely excessive with the ads and having to go to each individual mine you own to play mini games and upgrade each mine watching hundreds of not thousands of ads a day. There has to be an easier way. Going to my over 30 mines is absolutely ridiculous. I do give 5 stars because it’s innovation but cmon bro, could we work out a solution to the excessive monotony of it all. Please help a brother out and find a solution to the never ending ads.

### 4/5 — Early days

*2026-08-15, version 1.1.31*

People need to give this app some time it’s only just came out yeah there’s been a few small bugs but other than that I’m enjoying it

### 5/5 — Poker Mouse

### 5/5 — Referral code- TM-CP4E7

*2026-08-14, version 1.1.30*

It’s been a solid game so far. I’ve been loving the mini games especially the gold rush. I can’t wait for the cash out feature!!! Also if you are reading this and want to join use my referral code 
TM-CP4E7 for an extra 1000 TB which is 10 mines.

### 5/5 — TM-SXNPD referral!!

### 1/5 — Glitching app

*2026-08-11, version 1.1.23*

This is most glitching application you can ever have your device

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-08-11, version 1.1.23*

Great app

### 5/5 — Seems to have potential

*2026-08-11*

So far, I enjoy the game. It’s still new and there are some bugs but the developers are quick to address and correct them. The potential to make more money than the rival game Atlas Earth is definitely there. I’ve spoken to the developers a few times on their facebook page and they’re always polite and quick to respond. There’s a lot of work that goes into a game like this and they’re not an app developer, but regular people like you and I who had an idea. So far, their idea is going swimmingly. Apple is an issue for them just as they are for any app developer. PayPal has been an issue as well. Third party entities seem to be the holdups for Terra but Yerra is making headway. If you can be patient, I think it will pay off tremendously.

**Developer response:** If you haven't already, please upgrade to the more recent version; this should solve these issues. Let us know if you still encounter problems. scott@terramine.app
