★★★★★positiveAgg. The cool guy. · 2026-05-04 · v1.4
loved it
this game was the best. I absolutely loved it, but the moles were a bit scary. Besides that it was great. I only got one achievement though.
★★★★negativeXerovos · 2026-04-29 · v1.4
Very Short Game
A 2hr game, a fast ending that doesn’t reward your time wasted, then forced you to start fresh after wasting time maxing out all your gear. No ‘New Game +’ type of reward. You unlock achievement/trophy hunting after beating it. Wahoo…
★★★★★positiveMentions pricingJakmassaker1 · 2026-03-22 · v1.4
Really addicting
I don’t really know what I expected but this ended up being a really cool game. I wish it were longer but I guess that’s why it’s only a few dollars. If you’re not good with horror, maybe this isn’t the game for you. It scared the heck out of me right at the end. I wasn’t expecting it to turn into an almost horror game at the end
★★★★★neutralMentions pricingPolionitis209 · 2026-02-20 · v1.4
Great way to kill 2-3 hours not for $5 though.
This game ends super quick. This is more of a $1 or $2 game. Not worth $5. I payed $8 for a game recently that I was playing for days with similar graphics and much better mechanics. 4 or 5 stars if it was $1 or $2.
★★★★★negativemrsgiebs · 2026-02-15 · v1.4
Confused
Do you only get the treasure once? Because I started a new game after getting it once and my second game had an empty treasure chest.
★★★★★neutralkylekane · 2026-02-02 · v1.4
Needs better controls
The touch controls are poorly done and inefficient. It makes what would be a fun and relaxing game into a chore.
★★★★★neutralGood_b0y67 · 2026-01-19 · v1.4
Kinda boring
It’s fun at the start the graphics are smooth but it starts getting boring the more you play it :/
★★★★positiveSSundeedoesdabs6767 · 2025-12-27 · v1.4
Perfect but pls fix this bug
It is a perfect replica of the pc version but sometimes when I throw tnt it goes straight through the dirt.
★★★★★negativenot satisfied user fix it · 2025-11-25 · v1.4
Fun but full of bugs
If you get to deep the lights suddenly make it harder to see because they make boxes dark and light on the screen
★★★★negativeMentions pricingCarefreecapybara · 2025-11-22 · v1.4
Bad
Pitch black screen so I couldn’t play. Please read this before wasting your time time and money.

Save Game Button
We need a Save game button to have 4 game because if your baby sister clicks new game and it starts a new game you can’t get it back and that is what happened to me pls update the Save game button Update.
★★★★★neutralapplsuxxxxxx · 2025-10-23 · v1.3
Very mediocre
… had my gear maxed in a few hours, before ever finding gold, then I got to end of game to a very disappointing ending.
★★★★★positiveSenorBunny · 2025-10-11 · v1.3
Fun, but it’s missing a little something
I have played this game on pc and I was excited when I saw it in the App Store. It is super fun to play, but I was a little disappointed when my backbone controller is not supported. Would love to get backbone controller support for it.
★★★★★positiveDark night com · 2025-10-08 · v1.3
Wow so fun
The game is super fun. My only suggestion is to make it so you don’t have random particles sticking around and that those particles will clear up automatically.
★★★★negativeMini rachel · 2025-10-05 · v1.3
Blank screen
I can’t even play the game. It was just black screen One star fix your game
★★★★★positive€obra Bubble$ · 2025-09-26 · v1.3
Controls.
Doesn’t seem to work in main menu, but works well in game! Hold Right Trigger to dig.

So good I shared
This game is so freaking fun that I shared it with my cousin. It’s really worth buying I do recommend. It helps me with stress or when I’m just bored. Overall the best digging game ever.
★★★★positiveGame guy gibbie · 2025-08-13 · v1.2
Uhhhhhhh! What! Spoiler alert 🚨
Awesome experience digging , awful ending. I don’t get it. Game was way too short. What was the story? Did all that digging to get eaten by a huge mole? Am I the mole? Hope there is an expansion or something.
★★★★positiveMentions pricingmre1291 · 2025-08-07 · v1.1
Could Use Some Work
Nice concept. I do have a few suggestions. Instead of just finding ore, there should be random objects like silverware, jewelry, cans, etc…..stuff you might normally find digging around. Also, more upgrades please. I think it would be cool if you could use your cash to make upgrades to the house as well. Having an elevator to purchase would be nice. Overall good game and has potential!
★★★★★positiveMentions pricingEnderShadow42 · 2025-08-06 · v1.1
Simple. Elegant. Addictive.
Some things just work. This is one of those things. Everything about this works. From the implementation to the gameplay loop, it just works. It’s extremely satisfying. I’m happy to pay a few bucks for a contained experience like back in the day. I’ll pay 5 bucks for this experience all day long. It’s infinitely more fulfilling than every single p2w gacha combined. And it’s a game about digging a hole. The philosophical implications of digging a virtual hole being more spiritually fulfilling than an entire genre of entertainment are hilarious. Dig your hole. Find your zen.
★★★★negativeMentions pricingBlue-Moon-Dragonfly · 2025-08-05 · v1.1
Total Ripoff!
This game is ridiculous. No guidelines, hints, 3 sloppy over reactive confusing controls that have you jumping all over the place and not know which one does what!
★★★★★neutralelaleno · 2025-08-05 · v1.1
It’s okay
Eh once you upgrade it’s kinda boring, most of the fun is getting new resources, wish there were other tools to unlock or better equipment
★★★★★positiveDaveyJones87 · 2025-08-04 · v1.1
Love it
A game to definitely help with stress, I love it, thank you
★★★★positiveblurryki77er · 2025-08-04 · v1.1
Cool game but….
Control needs to be better especially when using the shovel. Pressing buttons in the options barely works and this is 2025 bro ALL CONTROLS SHOULD BE CUSTOMIZABLE.
