Mine, build, and upgrade your way to freedom! You've been kidnapped by the evil Mars Corp. and forced to mine for pieces of an ancient artifact buried deep below the surface of Mars. Finding all of the pieces of the artifact is your ticket back to Earth. You will find many valuable gems and ores along the way that can be sold at the shop to buy more supplies and better equipment to allow you to mine deeper. Make sure you have enough supplies to get back out of the mine! Every mine is randomly generated. No game is ever the same! Reviews: 88/100 - App of the day! - touchvolume.com Note: This is the 'lite' version of the game. The full game can be unlocked via an in-app purchase. This model was chosen so that save data would be retained between the lite and full versions. Feel free to e-mail suggestions/comments to support@tunabowlsoftware.com

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Mars Miner HD at none against Hack Tycoon's shown. Mars Miner HD also leads on iOS requirement (5.1.1 vs 15.1). Hack Tycoon's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
