Community Insight:
A little while ago we were looking for an actual good game to play and all we found was trash games!we thought it was hopeless but then we found this game!Its so fun when youre like us and have nothing to do on your phone or you just want new games.It 100% deserves what we rated it.
We love how its not to long but not to short.
Very peaceful and is just an amazing game. In our opinion, this game is worth it to download.
Our little slave guys ours in game. Very cool.
When we first started we realized the fun of this game but when you buy a lot of profit you dont get that much money still.
This game is calm and nice we love this game.
So we started playing this game many years ago with our brothers back in about 2020-2022 or so and we loved it it kept us busy for HOURS and we never once got bored of it we thought it was so entertaining and interesting but a couple years later we had to delete it for some room in our phone for other things and we have been looking for it ever since and when we were scrolling for some games we found it and we got a huge wave of nostalgia and downloaded it without no hesitation its so fun and keeps us busy for hours and its perfect for kids and long car rides etc SO FUN 10/10 we recommend.
Its just one of the best games created.
Its fun if youre a casual gamer but still there are adds so not all fan but we will recommend to play.
Its cute and simple, but after some time its ads for every little powerup, and its not one its two ads, the first one plays and then have to wait another five or 10 seconds before you can exit to get the reward. We even bought the 2.99 ad removal and we still get every add when we accidentally clicked on watch video when tapping the screen.
The game is fun and all but the people mining are so slow.
Every Level-up or upgrade involve some for of add, even if you press the clearly marked X.
Completed the game in three days. There arent many levels and they go fast. We did encounter one problem though, at the end of the desert level, (the last level on earth), when you think youve finished all the levels, a next pops up and takes you to four additional levels. If you travel to earth or mars you cannot get back to these four levels. Please fix this, and add more levels.
There is an ad every 30 seconds.
We bought the no ads on this and for 5$ and there were still ads for everything.
This is the best game ever its like real life but like its so good we dont even know how to explain it. Get this game right now if you want to experience the stone age and every single age that ever happens. This game is the best game youve ever experience. You were love this game until you die. We will play this game 24 seven if we have to. We just love it. Love it. Love it. Oh yeah there are theres not even commercials you have to pick the commercials.
This game is great! Its super interactive and fun.
Its adding to play for long periods of time just like the ad.
We used to play this game and it was very fun and it is still very very very FUN.
Typically no ads means NO ADS. Not no forced ads, all ads. Maybe specify that players will still have to watch ads for rewards.
Just give an optional add setting, that's turns off the "watch an add to get a boost" that appears every second. And stop forcing us to watch an add even when we click no thanks. Other than that neat time killer. Animations are charming and progression is pretty average.
The ads rewards dont always last as long as theyre supposed to or activate. Theres lots of forced ads even when pressing the x. After beating the mars and earth locations it sent us to this janky halloween place that after we visited earth disappeared with no option to return. Idk. The diamonds existing would be more productive if they could purchase variations of character skins or items instead of only being able to be used for very short term boosts that no ones going to piddle with. The boosts you get for watching ads are so short term theyre not worth doing either.
Its a good game. We paid for no ads and still get ads so thats annoying. Dont spend your money on no ads because you will still get ads.
Too many ads. We dont mind watching ads on purpose to get the little power ups or bonuses, but when you click no on a bonus and it forces an ad on you anyways?? Whats the point in even playing it.
We bought the no ads pack, it says that we dont have to watch ads to get rewards, everything that we tap to get an ad reward, it brings up an ad . We would like it if they could get us our no ads we paid for.
Thanks for making this game!!! ^.
This game is the best no Im not just a bot from the developers Im real and this has been one of the best mobile games behind Roblox of course.
Way to many ads to play enjoyably and theres not even an option to pay to remove them.
It would be 10x funner if the disable ads option that we paid for actually worked.
This one of the best games we love it. But it could have size upgrades.
We gave it a 5 star review because it is so much fun and it is a good game unlike others.And who ever made this thanks.
The only game we play on this phone thank you so much this game is fun and nice and peaceful.
This is a relaxing game and it is worth our time we love this game and continue the good work.
Are used to play this on our moms computer but then she took it away then we got it on the phone which is way easier.
Love playing the game. Already finished both earth and mars level. Its says more to come. Just wondering how long it takes. Lol thanks for the game. Its pretty cool. Just want to play more and have to wait.
It is a good game we love it keep going with this games.
WoahThis gameIS AWESOME! No comment needed to tell you how amazing this game is.
Seems like a fun game but then theres ads. At first it gives you the option to watch a video to get 3x gold for leveling up. If you choose not to watch the video sometimes a forced ad will appear. Ugh. This is infuriating. We shouldve gotten 3x gold by forcing us to watch. Not good developers. When will developers learn that forced ads push people out of their games. The BEST games are those you only watch ads that you choose to or can pay to opt out.
We finished Earth and Mars, and expected that to be it. But when we finished Mars, it took us to we guess a spooky themed dig. We had fun until we accidentally went back to Mars, and now we have no clue how to get back. We love this app otherwise but now Im done with what we can access.
To many adds making us not be able to play that much.
Every thing is great but why so much to get more workers.
For an idle game about watching people dig we sure need to do a of things that keep them digging.
This game is fun and all, but there are way too many ads. You need to watch an ad for almost everything you do. When you want to use a giant to help with the digging, you need to watch and ad or use diamonds (which you need to watch ads to get). If you want an elder to help watch over, its the same thing. When you want to open chest you watch ads. When you want to claim gold you watch ads. When you want to spin the wheel for surprises, you need to watch an ad. Its too many and your players are going to get annoyed. The only good thing is that ads dont pop up out of no where. We also think you guys should add a day and night cycle, it would make the game a little more interesting.
When we had one last block on our build it restarted then took us out it game and then when we got back it our us do it all over again and took our diamonds we have 9.
We paid the $2.99 for nomads and still have ads.. We want a refund.
We guess you get ripped off if you pay for no ads. It was cheap why we did it. But it did nothing for us whatsoever. We'll have to decline the charge on credit card. No way to contact support.
Forced ads. The devs shouldve only been crust in their moms hair.
Giving us the option to watch ads for a reward, cool. Forcing us to watch an ad when we click the X to NOT watch an ad, not cool.
Barely any rewards for simply playing the game, we paid $2 thinking it would get rid of ALL ads but nope. Offline progress is severely capped. Progress grinds to a halt if you dont pay $$ or watch dozens of ads within the span of a half hour. Dont waste your time.
We paid for no adds and they still show up everywhere.
