This is a pure administration mining simulation. it dosent try to be eany thing else. But it mangaes that to a ok extent. You by machines to remove the botle necks in the mine and sell your produckt at the best prise you can aford to wait fore. It is a game fore probaly 2-3 h an then thers just press repeat so it only worthe it at a low cost.
worst simulator ever.
Wollt ihr mich eigentlich verarschen? Man kann überhaupt kein Fahrzeug fahren. Man startet den Tag und es verändern sich einfach nur die Werte von dem Kies/Erz das man angeblich gefunden hat! Also ohne Scheiß das ist ja schon Betrug!
Sehr einfach gehaltenes Spiel das denn noch für kurzwelle sorgt
Gra słaba i tania, szybko się nudzi, ale na swój sposób ma swój odmóżdżający urok, mało interakcji, ciągłe zbierz-sprzedaj. Polecam i nie. Ciężko określić
No Graphics. It's a spreadsheet game with an animated backdrop. YGWYPF.
gra bardzo schematyczna i po jakims czasie szybko sie nudzi, fajna muzyka, grafika w tle jest zautomatyzowana i nie ma nic wspolnego z dzialaniami w tabelkach.
Stürzt andauernd ab. Kann keine 20 Minuten spielen.
Jeu très simple, interessant au début, mais on tourne vite en boucle après.
Très peu de choix: on passe son temps à achèter des machines pour produire plus et vendre plus, rien d'autre.
Cycle du cours du minerai toujours le même (ça monte au max, puis ça redescent au max...)
This game is heavily spreadsheety, to the point where there's not much game to it. It's all financial decisions, buying and selling assets that have assorted impacts on your production and expenses. You can sell materials on a free market or sign up for contracts. If spreadsheets with a plot is interesting to you, this may be your game. If you want something more like a tycoon game, I'd pass.
Es sieht besser aus als es ist :(
very booring
little to do
I can't recommend the game, it is far too simplistic, it could have been so much more. I am still saddened there is not a very good mining game on the market. If I were the devs, I would make a new game and make it a lot more interactive and complex instead of just a hurry up and wait to do nothing game.
It sucks ass plain and simple
WHOA!! STARTS INSTANTLY unlike Helicopter 2015: Natural Disasters which won't even start. Changing resolution in-game seems to have no effect; it only follows desktop resolution.
Bought this with the Pro Simulator Pack. Not a bad deal, so far 5/10. More detail review later.
Zero support for bug.
"5/10. Totally worth buying on a 75% off or better sale." According to My Own Rating.
I've had fun playing the game, but in order to do so, I've had to accept two facts. First, the video and screenshots are misleading, everything you see in 3d is part of an animated background that doesn't seem to be affected by anything you do. Then there's the fact that either the positive reviews have been paid for or I should go become a billionaire irl. I just find it hard to believe that mining industry is that simple and easy to run.
Once you accept that it's an extremely superficial/simplified business simulator with an animated background view, it's rather easy to have fun if you like business simulators.
That should be enough to clarify what the game is not: It's not a machine simulator, and it isn't a deep business simulator (in fact, it's even hard to say it's a good one).
I've stumbled upon a few bugs (such as the PANIC message when trying to load a save file after completing or losing a game), but nothing that would make the game unplayable. Also, the free game settings seems to have been poorly designed leading to impossible scenarios, like when you try "hard" for all options and start the game with a production so low that you're losing money unless the price is really high and you don't start with enough cash to increase production or even survive a couple months until the market price rises.
Other than that, I was expecting a very crappy and unfinished simulator, and it's just a superficial one, therefore, it's much better than I expected.
Don't expect much out of this game and you can have fun for many hours. Totally worth buying on a 75% off or better sale.
paska peli
This game is just a numbers simulator, which is fine, that's exactly what I wanted. But some of the game balance is so hilariously off that its hard to play it very much. Contracts give you far less money than the open market? PR tanks and takes 6+ months to build, impossible to keep up with. Played a beat many of the objective missions and overall can't recommend this. I got it for $5 on sale. Definitely not worth the full $20.
Almayın !! 31 tl verip alan varmı acaba ?
Das ist das schlechteste Spiel was ich je gekauft habe !!!!
DON'T waste your time or money
BAD. Just bad. This is not a simulation game. This is a sit behind a desk and click buttons game to make money. You don't drive anything, you dont actually do anything. I wish I could get mt money back. Totally not worth the money spent.
Если это аркада - то невероятно скучная. Если это - бизнес-симулятор, то - невероятно глупый. То, что авторы считают горнодобывающим бизнесом, на самом деле ничего общего с ним не имеет. Потрясающе нелепые базнес-модели!
dont buy this game ever
I thought I would be choosing a place to mine, taking soil samples, choosing the dimensions of my quarry and directing machinery. Instead it's menu clicking and watching numbers move. Not worth twenty bucks.
Endlich eine Wirtschaftssimulation. Es geht darum Bodenschätze zu fördern und diese zu verkaufen. Das erwirtschaftete Geld investiert man in Gebäude oder bessere Geräte. Ich finde die Aufmachung modern und schön und es ist super das dieses Spiel aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum kommt. Alleine deshalb habe ich es gekauft.
Wer mehr sehen will kann sich seine eigene Meinung bilden.

I played for 67 minutes and I think I've been through everything the game has to offer. Not exactly value for money and it seems like development is over so it won't get any better.
arkadaş çok sıkıcı bir oyun. keşke oynanabilirlikte katsalardı biraz
Very Hard or not well explained.
Tried 6 different stratigies in Tutorial, all led to financial ruin.
Buy new Truck, maintainance and saftey items - FAIL
Buy PR,maintainance, and safety - FAIL
Sign a contract longer than 30 days, machinery will break making contract no good - FAIL
Sign no contracts, just sell on spot market - FAIL
etc.
IF you dump all your saved ore at beginning, even though market demand is in millions of tons still, prices crater $10+ -> $5 or so because you sold 7000 tons ?
Lot of potential here, but without easier tutorial or diffuculty setting is very hard to me.
Thanks for reading, have a good one. :)
Nette Idee, leider grottig umgesetzt. Man ist in diesem Spiel nicht wirklich "drin" und die sich ewig wiederholenden Abläufe sind bereits nach kurzer Spielzeit demotivierend. Für den Preis darf man mehr erwarten!
ehrlich gesagt laßt es sein der anfang ist nett die idee ist ok aber wo ist das spiel ?? die paar optionen soll ein fertiges game sein die programmiere werden immmer unverschämter fürher gab es so was in der PC Joker umsonst 20 euro ist 100% zu viel .....
die ganzen reviews sind alle für ...... die leute habe alle keine ahnung was gut ist oder bekommen einfach was dafür sonst kann ich mir nicht erklären wie man so was als super geiles spiel bezeichen kann .......
danke ......
For the price tag...certainly not recommended. The pictures and video are nothing like the actual game. They make it seem like there is so much more to this game but really it is just a glorified econ game that could have easily been released as a free browser game and is about as cheap and low quality as a free browser game. Very little to do but point and click and mindlessly watch the same few backdrops...you really have no control over anything but the purchasing of equipment and selling of commodities. Oh yeah, there are only two things you can mine in this game...Iron and Gravel.
Don't waste your time or money like I did.
you cant drive anyhing
Je suis deçu le tutorial est nul, et on gere pas tant que sa son entreprise
what a rip off. click buttons that is all you get. waste of money.
Enttäuschend.
Die ganzen schönen Grafiken, die man sieht, sind nichts anderes als Hintergrundbilder. Interaktion mit diesen ist nicht möglich. Das Spiel findet ausschließlich in den Fenstern statt. Das muss nicht schlecht sein. Man hätte sich aber die Hintergründe schenken und stattdessen was in die Spieltiefe investieren können.
Die ist nämlich nicht besonders groß: Ein paar Maschinen/Fahrzeuge kaufen und gucken, dass die entsprechenden Bereiche alle gleich dimensioniert sind, damit es kein Nadelöhr gibt. Und sein Zeug verkaufen, das eigentlich immer gewinnbringend funktioniert.
Was nervt sind die Maschinen und Fahrzeuge die alt werden und ersetzt werden müssen. Entweder darf man sich durch dutzende Maschinen klicken und die einzlen zum Warten schicken oder man darf den Maschinenpark selbst erneuern indem man sie durch neue Maschinen austauscht. Sehr monotone Tätigkeiten, die keinen Spaß machen. Von den Maschinen sieht man nicht viel mehr als ein paar kleine Fotos, okay, ist auch nicht so wichtig. Dann bekommt man aber unnütze Informationen wie Fahrzeughöhe- und Breite angezeigt. Naja, wäre auch zu blöd wenn neben dem Bild und Namen nur noch der Preis stünde.
Eigentlich nicht schlecht gemacht, für ein 5-Euro-Spiel zum kleinen Zeitvertreib. Wenn auch etwas flach. Für 20 Euro stimmt aber das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis hinten und vorne nicht.
Das Spiel ist sehr leicht zu erlernen und macht auch jede Menge Spass. Allerdings gibt es zu wenig Auswahl was Fahrzeuge und Gebäudetypen betrifft. Auch vermisst man ein bisschen mehr Details zb. nach Upgrades oder käufen ändert sich optisch rein gar nix, Standart Bilder die in der Schleife laufen. Trotzdem keine Geldverschwendung.
They reviwes that "love" this game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. There is way to few machines and gear, and you get the best setup pretty quick. The game gets trivial and boring way to fast.
Fun little game for about 2 hours. Nothing more, seems like the reviews that talk about deep business simulation are bought. It is not. After 2 hours at the lastest you will be bored. Needs more vehicles, machines and buildings, especially during later stages of a game. Not worth the GBP 16.00, if you really want it, wait til its on sale for a fiver.
Fantastic Sim is this!
If you can stand working with figers and compeating with the demands for supply & the stock exchange messing around with the prices then this is the one for you.
You will need a clear head to succed and the knowledge of heavey plant as well as the safety matters of Mining and increasing demands for minrals!
Great Have fun!
I work in the mining industry and I like the genre. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this as a simulator of mining or, if you don't care about mining, a simulator of business. The list of problems is too long to list, but any first year economist could tell you there are a myriad things ridiculously broken in the business model.
This is a full on Buinsess simulator managment game through and through, there isnt anything fancy going here and you wont be getting into the vehicles and driving them.
This is purely a numbers game and all about running a business, if not a slighty dumb down way of running a buisiness it is still interesting trying to balance between contracts and selling on the free market whilst trying to keep a positive company image through various means such as safety, PR, maintance and labour effectivness.
You must also keep an eye on the various assets your company has and see what the bottlenecks in your company is which makes you have to decide when you should consider ordering new equipment or refreain as the market seems to be not so favorable and could cost you too much if you did expand.
£17 seems a bit steep for this game considering there is only 2 forms of resources you can choose from (iron ore & gravel), it would have been nice to see others such Bauxite, Gold, Silver etc, with the various specalist machinery that come with these.
Perhaps updates will come with these in the future.
Mabey being able to pick the site you wish to start your company and having the resources specific to that area would have been a nicer touch then starting some generic company somewhere not exatcly known.
It is a fun game if your into purely Buiness Management games, if your expecting something like Farming Sim and running your mining firm by jumping into vehicles and having your freind come and help, this isnt for you.
I wouldnt recommend this game for the price. This game is just a numbers game. It should be priced at $4.99 MAX
This is purely a business management simulation. If you like those type of games, this one is going to be for you and I recommend it. If you are quickly bored, not interested in economic simulations, or think you are going to be driving mining equipment around don't purchase this game.
