This game contains a very satisfying sandbox digging experience. You will collect soil by digging, drop them into your panning machine and produce valuable materials. Then you can load them into your truck and sell to the customers. You can find very valuable artifacts and gems in the ground if you are lucky. Besides you will have a museum to show what you find beneath the ground. Tourists will come and pay money to see the museum. Digging gets harder and harder as you unlock new soils.

The call

Mine Drill's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
