Idle DeepMiner

not much to say about this one , simple idle grinder , like the other thousands out there . Nice progression , not so slow not to fast , just not enough . 100% in not even 3 hours for 5€ nice lil time waster you run on the side , don expect anything new tho .

Idle & Incremental Lovers recommends Idle DeepMiner : [i] Dig your way to the bottom while enjoying flashy destruction animations. Get some help from your upgrades, artifacts and talents. No real synergies, but good sense of progression. Pretty neat UI. [/i] + I found the pacing to be pretty spot on. Contrary to most "desktop" idlers, progression never feels sluggish. And besides your usual "numbers go up" incremental progress, new flashy ways to dig are introduced along the way. + Artifacts ant talents are not insanely creative, but it's a nice addition to the usual upgrade tree. + UI is pretty intuitive, especially for the desktop part (moving the game around your desktop and pinning/unpinning it). + There is an actual end, which is great and unusual for a "desktop" game. - Lack of synergies. Despite the huge skill tree, the artifacts and the talents, it never feels like your upgrades are meaningful because they don't really interact with each other. ***I introduced a miner to heavy metal. He really digs it.*** Found this review helpful? Give it a thumb up and follow my curator page for more Idle & Incremental games recommendations : [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/4…

Simple, quick, lots of upgrades

It looks and feels like a bad port of a bad mobile game; unpleasant from the very first moment

Deep mines – shallow gameplay. A quick warning: the game is essentially finished after about 4 hours. You can continue playing and buying upgrades afterward, but by then you've seen almost everything it has to offer. Pros: + Frequent upgrades with very little downtime, so the progression always feels active. + The skill tree clearly highlights which upgrades are currently available. + Controlling the pickaxe with your mouse adds a small but enjoyable active gameplay element. + Several progression systems, including artifacts, skills, and additional abilities. Cons: - Since the game is only playable in portrait mode, navigating the skill tree and finding upgrades can be more frustrating than it needs to be. - The game is simply too short. After around 4 hours, there's very little left to discover. Overall: Idle DeepMiner is fun while it lasts. It's a short, self-contained experience that you can easily finish in one or two sessions without getting bored. However, at around €5, I don't think the amount of content justifies the price.

Relatively simple and short idle game, but I enjoyed it. The skill tree is a little wonky because the location of the different skills feels very random, but progression is constant and the game has a definite ending. Might be too short for some people but it was about 4 hours of semi-idle fun.
