Relaxing game, with easy to follow progression. Gems can be earned pretty fairly to buy premium miners it seems.

This is an absolute gem in the world of idle mining games, dazzling with its addictive gameplay and depth. From its intuitive interface to its satisfying progression system, every aspect of the game is meticulously crafted. The variety of mines to manage keeps things fresh, while the strategic decisions required to optimise production add a delightful layer of complexity. With regular updates and events, there's always something new to discover. The developer's (The amazing Pedro!) commitment to player satisfaction is truly commendable. They actively engage with the community, promptly addressing feedback and concerns. Their dedication shines through frequent updates, bug fixes, and responsive customer support. It's a testament to their passion for delivering an exceptional gaming experience.

Casual idle game about mining in a cave. Thought I'd end up killing a few hours, instead I've been playing it on and off for the past few weeks. Its the sort of game where you can either spend as little or as much time as you want with it. Plenty of upgrades and cosmetics to unlock so this'll keep me going for a few more months still.
