    This was a nice idea on the surface - dig and unearth treasures, to afford diggers to dig further and find more treasure. Sadly, even CookieThis was a nice idea on the surface - dig and unearth treasures, to afford diggers to dig further and find more treasure. Sadly, even Cookie Clicker has more depth than what is provided here.

    Where you may have expected to be able to dig freely throughout the world, as you can in many, many sandbox games, you'll be disappointed to learn your digging is limited to a 5x5 hole in the ground. You climb down a ladder, walk over the tiles to "dig" to unearth balls, gems, and/or coins. When your backpack of balls is full, you slog up the ladder to exchange them for coins, then slog back down the ladder. As you dig, you gain xp, and with each level your backpack capacity slowly increases.

    As you're digging deeper, the ladder climb gets longer and longer. When you reach the "climbing is taking way too long" point, you'll still have another 50 levels to go before you can unlock the next mode of travel. This is when you hire the NPC diggers and let them go at it for you.

    As you dig and collect coins, you can upgrade your diggers to be faster/carry more balls, build a pet shop which lets you buy pets who increase your move speed, or your xp, coin, gem, or ball accrual by some percentage, build a monument which increases the ball-to-coin exchange rate, and eventually you earn enough coin to unlock the next island...

    ...where you repeat the entire same process over again, with absolutely no differences other than everything being twice as expensive (and a different color palette).

    Even despite how simple the game is in all its aspects (graphics, animations, etc), the game exhibited severe slow down after only 2 hours or so of playing. By the time I reached hole 7 or 8, the game was so slow as to be nearly unplayable - then it crashed.

    I wasn't expecting much for $0.99, yet I was still disappointed. Then I noticed the full price is $5... and there are multiple DLC on top of that? That's borderline robbery for the pathetic amount of content & gameplay you actually get.

    I thought QubicGames started out with some decent titles in their catalog, but it seems they are treading more and more into the "mobile shovelware" territory, and it is high time to unsubscribe from their newsletter and ignore any more of their releases.    … Full Review »

    This is such a fun game to play! I would highly recommend. I also recommend to get the DLCs as well.
