Ratings and reviews

Instead of not allowing the upgrade buttons to be pressed when you can't afford an upgrade, it takes you to the premium currency shop, and all the high cost items are on the side with the upgrades. Therefore, if you spam tap the upgrade buttons, you may accidentally try to make a $50 purchase or spend diamonds without knowing and without delay. Luckily, Android requires confirmation before purchasing. I find this sneaky and underhanded. Another review calls this predatory, and I agree.

Played until floor 5000 and I've gotten the second to last upgrade on all excavator parts. The roadblock I hit is massive and will probably require me to play for months just to get 500 more floors. It feels like the ingame scaling needs some attention, math-wise, and the game lacks an incentive to continue playing (I.e a form of reset/ascension to actually make progress feasible.) overall this *could* be a good idle game, but it's current state makes it a *game over* for me.

Poorly done idle game. Good graphics and animation but the gameplay is just appalling. No definite end goal. Upgrades are poorly priced and spaced. You can basically go from 1 major upgrade to the next, getting all 50 miniupgrades in between instantly, before waiting another 5 days to earn enough for the next major upgrade. The offline earning is also bugged, 30% of the time the earning doesn't occur after closing the app. Idle game enthusiasts probably stay away.
