DIG - Deep In Galaxies instal the new for ios

There isn't much incentive to keep digging, other than to find more loot to help you dig more.

Yet despite this, I couldn't help but feel the game lacked depth, if you'll pardon the pun. The sheer success of Minecraft means that I'm likely not the only one to want to compare the two, which is perhaps a little unfair - Gem Miner is, after all, a mobile game.

Perhaps Minecraft has spoiled me with its procedurally generated terrain that goes on for as far as you can walk, allowing you to really explore however you like, while Gem Miner is stuck with you spending the majority of your time digging and doing not much else. Overall, I found the game to be a fun time waster for about 10 minutes, but I couldn't help but feel it got very repetitive very quickly. It's impossible to stay in your mine forever, though, you only have so much stamina and running out will mean a loot penalty. You'll also have to build ladders or install lifts to help get yourself back to the surface. If you dig under some rock, it may well collapse on top of you, sending you back to the surface with the penalty of loosing your loot. Unlike Minecraft, you do have to account for the structure of the mine as you dig. You start off with the most basic supplies and must dig, dig and dig to find precious minerals like coal, gems and gold once you've filled up your backpack, you can go back to the surface and sell it, allowing you to buy more supplies and better tools.

As you may have figured from the title, Gem Miner is a mining game that players of Minecraft will be somewhat familiar with.
