Community Insight:

We were enjoying it, now for 24 hrs, wont let us play until we update, but yet it wont update. Says update, open and continues to loop between these 2 things. Bummer.


When we first downloaded they had an option for $19.99 to get rid of ads completely. Now we log in today and they have a subscription option instead. We were planning to buy the ad free option within the next week or so. App deleted. Super frustrating.


We will set our timer on our phone for 30 minutes when our miner will be done with a block, but when we come back there is still 10 minutes left. Sometimes the time doesnt advance at all. We left for an hour with a level 9 miner doing a level 7 block (which takes under a minute) when we came back he was still working on it! Very frustrating! Especially in the events.


You guys literally just copied that gold and goblins game cant people do anything original anymore.


Im sorry but the game is boring and repetitive. Takes forever to get zombies and it seems like just a billboard for other games.


Game is overrun by ads which makes it unplayable unless you remove them. Removing them will cost you a whopping 20USD. That is insane for a mobile game. 5 USD is the most we would consider for a mobile game like this. We do not know how the game has a 4.7 out of 5 rating. This has to be fake as all the reviews we have read are 1 or 2 stars. The game is a knockoff of gold and goblins.


Plays like someone tried to counterfeit gold and goblins by coding their version from scratch, but botching it. Graphics are a bit better than what they copied, but the user interface is worse – much laggier and less responsive. And everything in it that you might pay money for costs more in this knockoff than gold and goblins. Dont get us wrong, its a reasonably playable game, it just plays like the developers spent more time on flash than playability.


Fun little game, but super greedy on the IAP. 20 to remove ads?? Plus interface design seems lazy, icons overlaying parts of the game field you have to interact with. -lus the misleading game pictures here, only last pic is actual gameplay.


Why does the game not respond to Apple Pencil.


Only one picture in five accurately shows the game. And its a repeated setup making you spend more time to do the same thing over and over.


We were really enjoying this game. But suddenly we just stopped loading. Does not work.


Was first place in the tournament now we can join it just loads been like this for 3 hours now.


Game sucked, not what was advertised.


The game is nothing like the ads show it to be. We hate when you download a game based on the ads and its not how the previews show it to be.


Why are U not selling 30 min and 15 min time jumps and WHY do we have to start all over again when we move on the elevator plus events suck when we have to battle ones with 30s never finish.


Like the game a lot…but why can we not use our Pencil Pro? We have arthritis and poking our fingers hurts, and can not enjoy game. Please, please, please.PLEASE let us play with our pencilsfeel like we are almost there as we can use pencil on a few things. If we could get full use on our pencil would rate this game 5+. Thank you in advance.


Its fun for about an hour then its extremely boring after that.


There is a bit of false advertising in our opinion. All the adds a graphics show one kind of game and when you actually get the game it is very much not the same. They have addressed his in a previous review, however they shifted the blame on the customer for not reading the newsletter. We find this to be frustrating because they advertise (a lot) showing one thing then the game is totally different and its the consumers fault. The game isnt horrible, just frustrating its not what we wanted to play.


The game is ok but theres no levels that youre using any kind of riding machinery to ours! Just the zombies digging. Even in the preview above when downloading its showing a zombie on a dozier type machine mining on level 5. Im on level 29 and no sign of any levels with machinery.


This is the most addictive game ever ,we dont usually write a review but you have to try it and good luck putting it down.


We really enjoy this game. We play daily, but since work takes a chunk of time out of our day (obviously). The hardest part for us is completing daily missions without spending a ton of money on chests, or staying up late enough to wait for Juliets or bombs. We dont understand why, if the same rubies can be spent in both the main game and special events, chests, Juliets and bombshell cant count towards daily missions in both main game and special events. Not a major thing. Otherwise, we like the fact that its mostly mindless, but there are times for strategic use of resources.


The RNG in this game lacks. You will end up with severe dry periods of no Juliet, bombs, or even essences. Just gold, and it is annoying especially if you are in a time crunch to get to a bubble. Please fix your RNG.


We played this game for months, and Im on ours 85. We were hoping that some mines would be collecting coins with a bulldozer to build mines up or build characters to be more powerful. Unfortunately, its the same thing each ours. Finally gave up playing.


Nothing like the game lol It is kinda fun to waste time with, but it is definitely not like the ads.


We downloaded this game because of the ad preview. It is a game to pass idle time but is nothing like the game that is advertised online the preview.


Nothing like the ads show. Although it was a lil interesting. Very fake ads. Game is nothing like it.


We really like this game and will be perfect no ads option, but its a month suscription, so no thanks.


Advertisement for game does not match what the game actually is. Game is not as fun as the advertisement looks.


Great game aside from the HORRENDOUS length of the ads. It will sit on a screen and you will think the game froze, nope just 3 screens per ad each like 30 seconds long.


We have problems opening the app. We will get into it but it will stay on the opening screen. We like the events. We suggest giving zombies more accessories too. But its a nice game, but we really want this glitch fixed so we can play again. We will be able to log in sometimes but not others. Sometimes we will be unable to play for days which makes the competitions feel pointless.


The game is not working. We have been trying all morning and the game doesnt work are yall going to fix it ? Is still doesnt work all day.


We dont know what changed since the recent update, but we have been unable to open the game since we updated. Please fix! We miss playing. It was our favorite game.


This game is nothing like the promos. Absolutely nothing.


We like this game, we play it a lot! Its extremely deceiving though, the game is nothing like what it shows here or in adds.


Love the characters and real time interaction earning rewards playing this game that converts to real life! Enjoy and play now.


Nothing like the adds. Nothing like the pictures on the AppStore. The devs are rude, demented, domesticated, and the adds during the game is insane. Absolutely insane. This isnt an indie game at all!! This is a game someone made in a basement and said oh lets see how many adds we can push and money we can make! 0 stars homies. 0.


Why do you lie in your ads?Nothing even remotely close to what is shown in the ad. We personally like this game but you seem to have no faith in what you have so you do fake ads.


The game itself is great! The events, collections, and the general gameplay are all really good. The only thing missing from this game is teams, if you can figure out how to integrate teams and team events into this game, it would add the only missing element to this game that is needed for keeping long term interest.


There are no ads in this game only if you say you want a ad for a reward. And the gameplay we really like so definitely try it.


We got this game because it looked interesting, based on the hundreds of ads we saw, plus in the App Store, the pictures reflect the same thing. However after over 100 levels in, Im still waiting to see the game from the ads. We dont dislike this game, but it would be nice for something different every once in a while. There are bonus levels that are more of the same thing. Please either change your ads or change some levels of the game.


The gameplay is okay if monotonous after the first 10+ levels. It is not as advertised however. There is no earth mover or pushing gold/gemstones onto a conveyer belt. We are mostly deleting it because it has become boring to repeat the same task again & again.


Game is fun, but when we are trying to earn enough essence to automate a ours, and what we earn doesnt change the total, kinda makes it hard to continue to play. This happens ALL the time. Need to fix the totaling.


It keeps giving you the option to watch a video (ad) to get the contents of a barrel, but after the video is over, it still prompts you to watch a video. What a waste.


Game gets more buggy the further you go.


The game is a well done, very repetitive mining game. It is NOT what is shown in the ads. Overall, there is no point to the game – with each level you complete you lose your leveled up miners and all coins. Just a time sucker with no real sense of accomplishment. AND, come on, its been quite a long time to keep falling back on those features will be coming soon – not happening folks. After playing for 38 levels – Ill be deleting the game – again.


Not a game. You dont DO anything, you just tap where it tells you to tap, while all manner of things that are meaningless to you happen on the screen. Cute graphics, but it makes no sense, and so there is no sense of accomplishment. If you tap where it tells you to tap, then you move to the next level. But it's meaningless. Your first zombie costs $8 and each one gets more expensive, so within a few minutes youre paying tens of thousands eachbut the income escalates so quickly that the costs are irrelevant. Which means the money/income is irrelevant. Because, as we said: this isnt actually a game, and you dont DO ANYTHING. Brain rot. 2 stars for being cute. Not recommended.


Passes the time but even when you pay to play, you dont win.


Ive been playing for months. Have not seen any of these levels in the previews. Slow game with a ton of ads.


Fun, cute, addictive plenty of little prizes, not many ads unless you want extras, & no money necessary. Really awesome movile game.


Enjoying the game. However this last week we play an ad and no reward. Sometimes itll play two ads and still no reward.
