Community Insight:
Bored at work, school, appointments? Play this game. Itll kill time.
The game is just as advertised. The first 20 minutes we didnt get. Single ad. We were asked to leave a rating but we said later then immediately got an ad. As it is when we sell our resources we use the 2x or 3x for an ad so getting frequent ads throughout our gameplay makes it less enjoyable. We wouldnt mind an ad every 5 minutes or so but we get an ad after about 2 resets back to base. Ads are quick and skipable after a few seconds overall its fun and passes the time.
The game has been out for a while and you can only dig down a small amount before it says next layer coming soon. And upgrade your detonator a small amount before it says your maxed out.
It's so entertaining and has no ads.
What a blast Im stuck playing this all the time and its super fun especially getting to prestige and reset the whole world. We just cant discover the third and fourth types of the bomb deployed :/ the two that we have are maxed out but looks like theres room to upgrade more but it doesnt allow the upgrade :( Im hoping the upgrade notification is a bug and Im not just missing a really big part of the game! We hope you are up and running, cause if you were to invest in any of your apps it should be this one :).
Just as the ad and we haven't seen any ads yet so we like this game.
Ive seen the other reviews and some old gameplay and we think maybe the game was pretty bad when it originally dropped. But since Ive been playing which is today and yesterday its been great. Idk if its our adhd or somen but this game is really fun. The only bad part is it needs more content but other than that we love playing this. Even the ads arent that bad since ur getting a 95% gameplay and 5% ad ratio. We really hope the developers go far with this game.
We love this game but would like to see an update where you can go deeper in the earth. Very cool idea.
(Spoiler!) So Im always skeptical about these types of reviews thinking thats there bots so hopefully this looks real enough lol. This game was actually pretty entertaining we had a lot of fun playing it and yes there was ads but they were really spaced out so it didnt interfere with the gameplay to much. We will say that the only problem would be that its a little short. You get to about a quarter of the way in and its says that this part in still in development so you get get pretty bummed out by that but other than that its really good definitely better than most mobile games out there.
Ive been waiting for months on a update Ive gotten to the point that says coming soon every were and every part Im waiting and nothing happenes we dont like to have games in our phone if Im not going to play so please update this game soon cmon.
There is a wonderful concept behind the game. We know a lot of hard work has been put into the game. Unfortunately, we have been at a point where we have reached the coming soon parts of the game. We will definitely be keeping an eye out for further map and bomb updates, as we really enjoy the concept.
The game is fun but even tho you buy no ads you still have to watch the ads so minus two stars for that.
We have downloaded this before and wanted to come back and play but it says its no longer available in the us store.
Its a good game but we just made it to the Mantle and it says coming soon. So a game was created to bomb your way to the core and the only level is the earths crust? Disappointing.
Tldr; fun short game, needs work and more content DONT purchase no ads as the game will still have ads. First off, we did have a bit of fun playing this. It has some novel ideas and isnt a bad way to kill an afternoon. The game has A LOT of bugs, but nothing so game breaking that it isnt fun anymore. However, there is a serious lack of content in this game. You will max out your upgrades super early, a lot of the items and upgrades need balancing (a lot of the expensive late game items are just worse than the cheap ones), and there isnt a lot of variety in what you can find in the environment. There are some special places on the maps you can unlock later in the game, but at that point the rewards they give are literally not worth your time. Another minor issue is that while the game shows four unlockable characters, there is actually only one, and it quickly becomes worse than just using the normal character, as the saw ability it uses eats through your energy abnormally fast (also it ends up just being less versatile at later stages.) The microtransactions arent worth your time if you plan on playing the game for over thirty minutes as youll be able to get more rewards than they offer by just playing a single run in the game. The idea where the no ads feature gets cheaper the more you play through the game is awesome, and we think a great way to allow players who dont want to spend too much still support the creators if they really enjoyed the game, however when we got all the way to the final tier and purchased the no ads offer, it didnt work. We still had to watch all the ads in the game. Major bummer. If not for the problem with the no ads, Id say this game would deserve maybe four stars in its current state. It has a lot of potential but needs serious rebalancing and fixes. We could see this potentially being worth five stars in a few months depending on how updates go, but we cant recommend it right now.
First off its a simple game and could be more fun but, its another one of those were they force you to watch a add every time you turn around. Then they give you the option to pay to disable adds. We dont mind watching adds for rewards or paying for a game once we see we like it and would rather get the rewards without having to watch all the adds. But when a game forces us to watch this many adds and hides everything hind a paywall we just delete the game. So if they ever make it so you are not forced to watch adds and can just chose to do so then sure would be great little game to easy time.
The game overall is pretty fun, but Ive experienced more bugs in this than any other mobile games Ive played in our life. First off, once you collect the saw you can only use it for one run every 30 minutes. This alone is annoying but the fact that once it runs out and you try to change your bomb back to the original, all your buttons are gone. We usually have to restart the app 3-5 times for the buttons to even appear. Sometimes they dont even appear and we have to wait 30 minutes to play the game again. Also when you destroy the first ours in a big area, we absolutely HATE how some parts that youve already destroyed just decide to come back just to get in your way of making it back down. Also dont understand the max levels. Is there a way to remove the max to some things? Like for energy the game will give us the notification to upgrade it even when its maxed out. Overall the game is decent, but the bugs ruin any chance it has at being fun.
They made a game that is nowhere near finished. After a few days of playing if cant upgrade anything anymore cause it says its maxed. No new upgrades and no new levels. Wasted 2 days and money paying for no ads to have nothing else to do with it.
Adds are so long. Add for every time we go back to base. Add for this. Add for that. Just adds.
We get youre trying to make money to keep the game running but you have to realize that giving us adds every 5 seconds is gonna kill your amount of players which will kill this game either way. Find a balance, or just find a new job. This game is repetitive and boring either way.
Its a great game but it wont let us restore from backup , restore our in app purchases and we had to delete the app to reinstall which lead to the first 2 problems.
Finished first map and upgraded everything to max. Second map we cant boom anything??? We changed ball bought booms laser and everything wont work? Whats the deal? Cool game but unfinished.
Banner ads cover up the UI, terrible design.
It was fun at first then the update ruined it.
We spent $16 on this game to get coins and extra bombs. Never received our coins or tht bombs we called apple support they couldnt help us because this is a third party game.
We bought the Elite pack and the Standart Pack and we never received our items. Waste of money dont buy anything from the item shop. The only thing that works will be the no ad. Overall the game is decent just dont spend any money on the packs.
Full of adds not fun at all every 30 seconds there is an add.
Ive only played for around five minutes but its pretty good so far. Wish there werent any ads though.
The game is really fun, But its been a while since weve had a map update. Any chance we can can a timeline.
Solid concept. Enjoying so far will probably buy the no ads at some point. Would love to see more destruction physics, maybe being able to add in enemys and you get some automation weapons. This game also could lean into a rouge lite genre as well. But no worries devs, you already have a really cool game.
The game is great for killing time, but when you turn off the explosion it still uses the ammo thats the only thing that bothers us.
Free version is unplayable. We bought the no ads and it became a blast. Hahaha. See what we did. However lack of updates: maps and expanding current maps is ridiculous. Even give is us the ability to reset a lvl to blow up stuff again.
We bought the no ads and still get ads whats up with but other then that its good game really enjoyable.
We have been playing the game for about 3-4 days now and its fun, when we made an in app purchase it never gave us what we bought.
The game can be satisfying at times but after a while its just like you beat the game and theres nothing else to do. The mines are not endless and the amount of bugs are insane. Our bombs wont activate and will make us go back to the top and if we have our bombs deactivated the will still act as if we used one if we tap the screen. Its an alright game, could be cooler if we could do something else other than ours like upgrade our ball and fight other players. Its a senseless game for a senseless outcome of a ending.
We keep losing bombs and they dont even activate, the bomb count just drops.
We like the game and it kills time but every 10min it freezes and we loose our progress if we havent responded back to the start.
We downloaded base of the review of no ads after 3 resets of your bombs you get ads.
The amount of ads just make the game impossible To play.
App seems cool at first, but then you hit the never ending ads. We pushed through it, and turns out the game says (coming soon) after about 3000m deep. The ad said you could go to the core. This game is severely incomplete.
This game has ads galore, and purchasing the no ads upgrade does nothing to remove or even reduce the amount or timer of the ads. We feel scammed even though it was only a few dollars, but its still a very poor thing for them to advertise.
Put in a good amount of time and wasnt worth it. It was fun but once you reach certain depth and level you can do anything. Waited a month and it still says coming soon it took away how far we got and nothing has happened. Sick of it, suggest not wasting your time.
Just dont play it, it requires ads 24/7 and if u have no internet it wont let u play at all. 0/10 waste of time from a potentially okay game.
Just another ad generator not worth downloading.
This game is heavily loaded with forced ads. If you happen to use an ad blocker in any way or try to play offline, they use a full-screen overlay to keep you from playing.
Only 3 worlds are available and only a limited area is playable. This game is simple and a great time waster until you reach those points and then there is nothing to do. Ads around every corner. Youd think with all those ads theyd have money to continue to update the game but NOPE. Time to delete and play something else.
There ads like ever min, you cant even progress with out an ad at one point. If you wana make it fun take away the ads except when you are buying power ups or getting extended bombs.
If you love ads youd love the game.
Game is amazing and best of all no ads because most good free mobile games are just ad simulators or a ad simulator with pay for no ads.
This game has no ads and its so easy! We dont even need to write a paragraph to explain how fun it is.
