### 2/5 — Don’t bother.

*2026-08-30, version 1.9.0*

God forbid we get a game that you can play without watching more ads than actually playing the game. I think it would fun but the ads ruined it.

### 2/5 — Game issues

*2026-08-27, version 1.9.0*

I started playing the game and it was great. So I made the purchase to remove the adds. I 
Played it for a couple days and now I try to log in and the game freezes and kicks me off. Great game if it worked.

### 3/5 — Remove bird noise please

Awesome game . In fact my favorite game . Problem is twice after I get really far into the game and accomplished a lot it’s starts to glitch a lot until it won’t even open .

*2026-08-08, version 1.8.5*

Made it pretty far in the game and now it keeps crashing. Very annoying when I payed to play without adds even though it cost way more than it should have. At its core this is a money grabbing game and not worth your time or money

### 3/5 — If you want to keep playing the game don’t complete the drilling, game crashes after that

*2026-08-02, version 1.8.5*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Micro game

*2026-08-30, version 1.9.0*

Too many adds also they just want ya to spend money

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work - don’t waste your money

*2026-08-28, version 1.9.0*

I’ve been playing on it for a few days. Adds kept popping up making it frustrating so I paid to remove the adds. Now I’ve completed all the challenges the game just keeps crashing. What a waste of money

### 1/5 — freezes and crashes constantly. genuinely unplayable

*2026-08-28, version 1.9.0*

i have to close the game out and reopen it constantly. sometimes it freezes just while loading. this game is already ad hell, but i wouldn’t even consider purchasing ad free because it barely runs in the first place. and honestly the gameplay isn’t satisfying enough to even care if the crashing gets fixed. genuinely bad game/app.

### 1/5 — Ads every 60 seconds

*2026-08-27, version 1.9.0*

Ads every 60 seconds

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2026-08-20, version 1.9.0*

Been stuck on the “throw dynamite on the ground” task for a long time. Did the task about 5 times. Did it on the X mark. Nothing happens. Then I got a white glove on my backpack. Click the backpack. Same thing nothing happened. So now I’m unable to move forward and progress in the game. Very upsetting

### 1/5 — Can’t play anymore

*2026-08-18, version 1.9.0*

After discovering the third mine, the game keeps crashing and I can no longer open it at all. Every time I try to launch the game, it immediately closes.

How can this issue be fixed? At the moment, the game is completely unplayable. Please resolve this problem as soon as possible.

### 1/5 — A complete rip off

*2026-08-17, version 1.9.0*

I played this game nonstop for 2 days. Got to the biggest achievement, unlocking to 3rd mine. Then, game started crashing. No matter what I did, it would crash. It feels intentional. I’m glad I didn’t waste more than 4.99 to get the ad-free version, because it was a complete waste of time otherwise. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.

### 1/5 — Glitchy and terrible

*2026-08-17, version 1.9.0*

Played for about a week, paid for ads to be removed. As soon as the crystal mine was u locked the game started freezing all the time to the point the app wouldn’t open. I deleted and reinstalled the game and it completely reset my progress. Waste of time, don’t bother playing.

*UPDATE* The developer responded with a copy and pasted response about ads proving that they don’t even look at the feedback as my feedback was about the game crashing and not advert frequency!

### 1/5 — Good potential

*2026-08-10, version 1.8.5*

I wish I could rate it higher, but the game is unplayable due to frequent crashes. From all of the reviews it looks like they have been going on for months and the devs don’t seem too interested in fixing it.

### 1/5 — Annoyed

*2026-08-09, version 1.8.5*

Pretty annoyed at the game, just opens and closes can’t even play anymore, put lots of time and a few bucks into the game. Many times it lagged out and I lost my inventory.
Few times I would free fall through the map and had to reset, also lost my inventory including all my dynamite. 
Enjoyed playing but annoyed at all the issues.

### 5/5 — Just WOW!

*2026-08-17, version 1.9.0*

Hands down one of the best immersive simulators! No forced ads in the beginning but they come later. I just ended up buying the no ads package to support the devs for such a great mining game

### 5/5 — I love this game. It’s the best though I have one idea.

*2026-07-31, version 1.8.5*

This game is amazing though there’s just one thing I would love if you added multiplayer

### 5/5 — AD HELL!!!

*2026-07-23, version 1.8.5*

Actually as advertised and it is fun but it’s constant ads every 30 seconds that totally ruin the game and no I’m not ganna pay you 5 dollars to stop ad bombing me in a game I don’t even have to play

### 5/5 — The dude

*2026-07-04, version 1.7.4*

Pretty cool game to kill the time

### 5/5 — Glitch

*2026-06-30, version 1.7.4*

Awesome game but constant bump offs would probably spend money if I didn’t have to login every 2 minutes. Update it was just my iPad game is awesome again on phone

### 5/5 — A Really fun Mobile Mining Game

*2026-06-30, version 1.7.4*

It’s really fun to play but my game crashes every time I use dynamite

### 5/5 — Not bad

*2026-06-27, version 1.7.4*

So even the ads aren’t to bad. Veryfun

### 5/5 — Like but it froze

*2026-06-26, version 1.7.4*

Really like the game. Finally had the mine almost complete and it froze on me. Had to delete game and lose all progress. That sucked.

### 5/5 — Lagging

*2026-06-20, version 1.7.4*

It keeps booting me out of the game everytime other then that the games great but it sucks that I can’t play because it kicks me out everytime

### 5/5 — Je ne peux plus 😢

*2026-06-15*

Dommage, gros bug, une mine ne veut pas exploser, (eu le cas plusieurs fois) coupe le jeu à chaque fois. SVP corrigez ce BUG !!
