ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Gem Miner 3D holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gem Miner 3D has 149 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Gem Miner 3D's written reviews are positive against 67% of Craft Digging Universe's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 11 months. Both last shipped on November 3, 2026.
