Mine Quest 2 - Mining RPG for Android
Played to level 26. Tons of ads, clunky UI, super grindy, stingy with rewards, and massive downtime between plays. The strategy is fun but the devs only method of making it harder is to stuff you in a box (limit what armor/weapon to carry) and then throw everything at you to capitalize on built in/forced weaknesses.
I get why mobile games do it. But when there's no way to get rid of it, then that's the bummer. I would easily drop a few bucks to drop energy, so I don't have to wait to play. Otherwise, it's a beautiful game, it has a lot of charm, and plenty to do. But the energy makes it mediocre. (Update) I've played for a bit longer, only to release that due to the dumb way items stack, you run out of storage space super fast. And the only way to upgrade your storage is through premium currency.
Balanced for P2P and oh, the ads! Game play is fun, good controls, a bit resource intensive. Advancement borders on grind, but compelling. Inventory system is deliberately complex to encourage premium upgrades. Ads interrupt almost constantly, hijacking to 30sec+ infomercials with unadjusted volume. Almost, but not quite unplayable.
The game is nice overall. The only thing is there's a glitch where after selling items, sometimes, the inventory slot still remains full, meaning one additional inventory slot is occupied when it shouldn't be. After restarting the app, it goes away. Please fix it.
Game needs enemy drops recalibrated, the items you need most drop extremely rarely. No matter how many times you play and replay a level. Also no way to save progress in servers so that you can link your game to another device. Ex. If you lose or break you device your game is gone and you will need to start over. And all that hard earned money put into game if you so choose to buy some gems. Will be gone as well.
Ads frequently pop up randomly on the main screen. Instant uninstall. Please. It was a good idea to allow ad viewing for a few small bonuses. But there is no way the annoying pop up ads make me want to pay money. Instead, the greed has lost me as a potential supporter. Otherwise, the game is pretty solid.
Good game. but i don't care how good your game is, the number of ads i have to put up with is just rediculous. normally i don't mind spending a few bucks on games, but i refuse to give games like your a single cent because of the way you shove the need for cash down your players' throat. byebye!
Game itself is great, has some fun mechanics too it. Only problem is that, if you want to make any kind of quick and easy progess, in-game-purchases are a bit of a necessity. However, they're not needed to do the game, and the game itself makes up for them with entertainment value.
This game makes it almost impossible to upgrade all of your weapons because it costs so much to do so. And even if you do spend the money they don't give you what your dollar should buy. Still being stolen from. Rediculous. But all that aside I enjoy the game.n maybe next time you won't focus so much on the cost of things maybe make it a little more the reach average players. And when I speak of cost and speaking of the coins in the game not not the purchases made
Just downloaded this game and find it quite good fun. The only problem im finding is you don't get given the stamina (or whatever it is that let's you start a level), that is indicated you will receive, when you level up your hero/avatar.
Great game. Hate the fact I get a ad every time I go to the map. Don't I watch enough ads at the end of a run, Free chest and potions. And no I'm not watching one for 100 cheap gold
This is a pretty fun casual mining game with a limited story and some gear leveling. Unfortunately, the fun ends quickly as you have to grind gold endlessly to upgrade gear. Buying in game currency is worthless. $5.00 of gems will barely get you enough gold to level one 3 star item. It's just not worth the time.
I'm tired of the game freezing and crashing. Every time I load a level, it does just that and then it saves from that crash and I lose everything, even my gems to keep playing more levels. It's happened 4 times in a row and now I can't even play the game, because I have to wait for the gems to come back so I can play more.
would have liked to play; game looked promising with some mechanics, but waaay too many ads to be enjoyable. ads to load the game, ads between screens in town, ads after every map, ads to open chests and do things. unable to experience the fun
Instant uninstall when you go into the game and are met instantly with an ad. Ads everywhere when you come out of a dungeon when you go to town just silly. Don't mind ads to get me something but not forced on me.
I clicked on a video ad to get a free chest. After watching the ad, my game restarted and another video ad launched before i could do anything else. After the ad finished, the game reset itself again. I was able to play for about 5 mins beforw this ad loop happened, and it looked like it was going to be fun. Too bad.
Its Basically Pay to win or even to play it. 50 storage is nowhere near enough to store anything as alot of items only stack up 5 of that item before using an extra storage spot and it costs 10 gems to only upgrade 10 slots and if you die the only way to revive is by paying gems. It plays great and would be worth it if it didnt rely so heavily on you buying gems just to continue
The game itself is pretty great. The number of pop-up ads is horrible. Every other time you switch a screen an ad pops up. Can't play the game for more than 2 minutes without an ad.
Great game but when my phone broke I can't figure out how to restore my game on my new phone. Also the restore purchases button doesn't work. I can't play any more because I don't want to start over with adds again.
edit: realised id misinterpreted how stamina works but its still quite grindy. i also dont like how if you run out of stamina, you have to leave the mine even if you havent finish or you lose the stuff youve collected. good game and i love bothcthis and the original but thinki t could be improved.
Easy to play, great to fiddle or kill time. Functions very well. Could use a few interface tweaks such as better Descriptions more roll overs and an option to turn off the jibberish voices during dialog scenes. Best if you buy out of the in game pop ups for a low one time fee.. hey why not, they worked hard to bring us this game. Gold is too slow to get but its good enough to deal with. I give it 4 stars.
I hate waiting for portal energy! 10 mins for just 1 is ridiculous. Great game, fantastic progressive mining rpg, but you killed it with the portal energy. Expect to play about 10 hours before it bogs down
While the game has tons of potential, considering it is a part 2 one would imagine they would have addressed player concerns. Game has bugs (when u sell items to the black market it doesn't update your inventory), finding gems is FAR too rare, TONS of ads (Even though all it takes is a purchase to stop ads this is too cut-throat a style to force people to shell out a few $), you can't link your save to another device, and other issues make me unable to give better than 3 stars
This is a nice enough game but there are WAY too many ads. I understand that developers need to pay the bills and throwing in some ads are OK but this game interrupts every third thing you do with a 15 to 30 second ad that you can't close or bypass
It's an amazing game. Its just a bit grindy, which is fine. I just think its way to hard to get fire fangs to level up the tavern thing. If anyone knows how, that would be nice. It just seems completely random from the fire bats.
Great game! I personally wish there wasn't a 'wait time' in the game, but that's the way games are going lately. But back to the game, it's addicting , fun, and a good time waster. Download it if your in between things and need somethinf to do!!!!
The game play mechanics are both fun and addicting. But there are WAAAY too many ads. Like, I don't mind getting a free gem or 100 gold for a 30sec ad that's fine. But when I launch the game and it starts me off with an ad that's the line. They really want you to spend a couple bucks because any in game purchase removes all ads. If I weren't so cheap I would give it 5 stars. It's a very good mobile game.
To revive after a death, you must use gems. To expand your storage, you must use gems. You only get 15 stamina to run mines and it takes 7 min each to renew. Every time you level, you only get 1 extra stamina. They almost force you to buy gems to do anything in the game. There's only about 20 mins of game play each time.... Unless you buy gems. The first one is way better and way worth your time if you don't want to be forced to spend money.
I played through the 1st game awhile ago, and really enjoyed both the gameplay, and the storyline. And now there's a sequel?! I am really loving it so far, just as much as I loved the original game. The only thing I have against both games, is the limit in storage. I'd like to be able to increase storage, either when we level up (which would be best), or we could use resources and/or game cash to increase it. Change that, and the game is perfect!
Would be an ok title if it supported cloud saving. Without it just a waste of time since it's a grinding game. Unless I'm missing something and it's possible to cloud save/transfer save then I will rewrite my review. Weird af though since it connects to both FB and Google Play and no option no synch between devices...
It gets pretty grindy after the first few hours of play and the gems don't get you very far for the price. At least with the last game it felt like you made progress when you played...you just had to wait to play. I'd rather have that than grind. BUT it is a very well done game and contains a lot of the original's charm. Update: after a long break, I tried the game again and am impressed. They've added a lot of freebies that helps. You can get a free chest that might have a scroll piece every hour.
fun, fun, fun..!! got me hooked. easy to play, understandable instructions, not too complicated especially for the craftings, its a good game. although, its weird why developers love to create that energy thing. can u guys create something for us players to gain more energies, the waiting is killing me. i fully charge my phone so i can play this game, my battery isnt down to 50% yet now i gotta stop playing..im sad.
I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to find a new game that I can enjoy for some time now. I found this little gem a couple of days ago and can't put it down. It's an awesome time killer, I like the different game elements that the developers melded together for this game. I haven't been playing it long but it is my favorite game on my phone right now and I expect it to stay that way for awhile!
Cut the ads man! Don't make me pay 8 dollars for the ads. Otherwise this game is fun. I literally just dropped my star rating for this game to cut the ads out, and guess what?? I STILL HAVE THE ADS!! Don't be fooled like me.
I love ur app and I was on level 40. I had to reset my phone and after I download ur app again I tried to load my level but I couldn't find any command within ur app to load it. i think u need u add the option and let ur players they load their levels like clash royale, play with clash and reinstall their app to see how they give u option to load ur level. now please help me I load my level. thx
I can't save to any account (Facebook, Google, etc) to play on tablet when I'm home. That should be basic. Ppl charging for games for the money sad. Ads can't be stopped, they last about 30 seconds and occur every other time I switch menus, etc. UNINSTALL. Game is so so anyway
My biggest complaint is the lack of storage space. You have to buy extra storage with gems. Not enough gems are rewarded to accommodate the storage needed so you end up having to sell alot of pieces that you need for upgrading and evolving. It's a push for people to buy gems so that they don't have to sell things they need to hold onto.
I bought something to get rid of the ads and yet I still have to watch ads to get the free chests or 100 coins and whatever. I thought the purpose of buying something was to get rid of ads, so I'm a bit bummed. Storage fills too fast and energy refills insanely slowly, but when you have both, it's a really fun game.
Scam. Energy regeneration is too slow. Keep watching ads then it magically says in In proper english watch all ads for free gem and doesn't reward you the free gem. Then it takes away the video offer. Total $ cam. The bosses have a critical hit that 1 hits you. un installing.

The game at its core is great, fun and smooth gameplay, but the energy (which is the bane of video games) and Micro Transactions (also the bane of video games) completely ruins this game. You run out of energy so quick, then run out of inventory space so you have to spend premium currency to expand it or sell inventory which you would later have to spend energy to grind back. All around terrible experience and terrible game. Make it paid for $5 and I'd buy it.
