Fun, simple and cheap! Thanks! I have one question, in the options of the full version, there is an option for extended or normal view but I didn't notice a difference between the two?

In normal view I could actually mine so far to right and left that I would be off the screen a tad. Extended fixed this.

great game! The entire family loves it. Even my 21 month old..... he mimics the miner's jumping sound and says "more" when I quit the game. :D

Anyone who hasnt played it yet should give the demo a try...... it's a simple, yet very addictive game. And for $2.50 you can get the full version?? :eek:

You got it for 2 cents?

At the recommendation of a friend, I bought this. Then I ended up playing it for probably four hours. It's simple, but perfectly executed. The sounds and small details add up to make a really focused, fun, addicting game. I have to say I would not feel bad if I had paid ten bucks for this (of course it's easy to say that after paying $2 for four hours of entertainment).

For anyone who's played it, how far have you made it down? If I remember right I was at almost 1100...the search for the bottom keeps pushing me to play on.

Elevators get you to about 1100 feet or so. I've dug down to around 1275. Somewhere around 1200 feet you'll find a teleporter.

I'm almost to the point where I'm ready to do a suicide dig and see how far down I can go on a full tank of digging fuel. I need to get the last drill ($10mil) before doing so since the soil is so much harder/compacted.

Gotta love this game!
